At Electric Coin Company, we're deploying next-generation technology at the intersection of privacy and financial systems. We have made great progress in maintaining the Zcash cryptocurrency and ensuring it has an excellent reputation for security and privacy. As we continue our commitment to the security of Zcash, we need to further our commitment to Electric Coin Company engineers by improving our infrastructure and CI systems to make them more durable, repeatable and efficient.

As a Senior DevSecOps Engineer, your first task will be to dive into our CI system to familiarize yourself with the architecture, identify areas for improvement in the short term, and in the long term propose and lead the effort on implementing a replacement system. In addition, you’ll be using your knowledge of DevSecOps best practices to help lead the efforts to improve our monitoring, alerting, and infrastructure using the latest tools like Docker, Grafana, and Kubernetes. We’re a small team so helping to further automate our corporate IT functions is a must in order to ensure we’re running things as smoothly as possible. This role will also involve mentoring our more junior DevOps teammates, helping to get them trained up and guiding them through best practices. We’re looking for a collaborative, humble, self-starter who can come onboard and make an immediate impact.

Requirements

We have few concrete requirements. We're flexible, but we're looking for someone with experience with CI systems, including maintaining a CI system with a growing engineering team. You should be passionate about DevSecOps best practices like scalability, sustainability and fault-tolerance with minimal human intervention. You’ve been in the trenches and learned a lot of valuable lessons about systems architecture and you’re ready to apply those lessons to a new environment. You have a ton of grit, you love implementing tools that make engineers’ lives easier, and you’re passionate about the efficiency of engineering teams as a whole. This role will participate in security incident response and be part of our on-call rotation to respond to security and operational incidents.

This means you need the empathy to be a supportive colleague and collaborate well with people of widely different backgrounds, personalities, and skill sets.At the end of the day, we're looking for someone who's as excited as we are about building the future of cryptocurrency.
