[Hiring] Senior DevOps Engineer @Lisk

Role Description

Help own and evolve the cloud infrastructure behind Lisk's financial platform as we scale. You'll join our platform team to keep money-handling systems secure, reliable, and changed only through reviewed, auditable, repeatable processes.

As we grow, so do the demands on our infrastructure, and you'll help raise the bar continuously and set the standard for how we run production at a fintech level:

• Least-privilege by default
• Everything as code
• Nothing done by hand in the console

What you’ll be doing:

• Work as part of a tight-knit platform team.
• Partner closely with fellow engineers, sharing on-call, reviewing each other's infrastructure changes, and jointly owning the platform roadmap to add depth and resilience to a critical function.
• Drive the platform roadmap.
• Own our Infrastructure as Code.
• Run production at a fintech bar.
• Lead on security.
• Build safe delivery pipelines.
• Make the platform observable.
• Plan for failure.
• Control cost.
• Raise the team's bar.

Qualifications

• 5+ years in DevOps / SRE / SysOps / Platform Engineering, with significant ownership of production AWS environments.
• Deep, hands-on AWS experience across IAM, compute, networking, managed databases, storage, secrets, and observability.
• Expert in Infrastructure as Code, specifically Terraform or OpenTofu.
• Strong security instincts with a focus on least-privilege access.
• CI/CD fluency, ideally with GitHub Actions.
• Production operations maturity, including observability and incident response.
• A bias for shipping with a track record of delivering hardening, migration, and reliability work.
• Self-sufficient in a lean team, comfortable owning large areas independently.
• Remote-first working style with clear written communication.

Requirements

• Experience in FinTech, payments, banking, or another regulated/high-trust environment.
• Web3 / crypto infrastructure experience.
• Threat modeling, security audits, or formal incident-response leadership.
• Database operations depth (Postgres tuning, zero-downtime migrations).
• Kubernetes, service mesh, or large-scale container orchestration experience.
• Cost-optimization wins you can point to.
• Network architecture at scale experience.
• Exposure to a second cloud (GCP/Azure) or genuine multi-cloud networking.

Benefits

• Flexible work schedule to balance life and work.
• 25 days off per year.

Company Description

You'll be building at the frontier of business finance. That means no playbooks, no best practices, no old ways of doing things. You'll own your craft from the ground up and help define how businesses interact with money.
