Blockchain Operations Engineer

Somnia, a revolutionary blockchain infrastructure company, is seeking a Blockchain Operations Engineer to join their team. As a high-performance Layer 1 blockchain platform, Somnia is transforming how data is stored and utilized on-chain, enabling real-time, reactive decentralized applications across gaming, social networks, and metaverses.

The role involves building and maintaining robust cloud-based architecture supporting the Somnia Blockchain. You'll be responsible for deploying and managing nodes (full nodes and validators) on Google Cloud, ensuring continuous development and operation. The current architecture leverages Google Cloud with Docker, Kubernetes, Helm for node deployment, and Terraform and Ansible for infrastructure management.

As a Blockchain Operations Engineer, you'll design CI/CD pipelines, architect cloud solutions, develop monitoring systems, and provide crucial support to third-party node runners. The position requires 3+ years of experience in Blockchain operations or DevOps, strong cloud platform knowledge (especially GCP), and excellent communication skills.

Somnia is being developed by Virtual Society Foundation, an independent organization initiated by Improbable, with initial funding from MSquared. The company operates on a remote-first basis, offering flexibility to work globally with a preference for Europe/Asia locations. This role reports directly to the Head of Engineering and offers an opportunity to be at the forefront of blockchain infrastructure innovation.
