About the Team
The SRE team is responsible for the infrastructure that makes the Polkadot platform and technology work: test and production network environments, deployment pipelines, observability, and the systems that developers, node operators, and end-user applications across the ecosystem rely on. This spans the full stack from runtime and parachain development environments through to infrastructure supporting live applications and events.
We run environments at different stability tiers, from fast-moving test networks with daily automated updates to production networks with 24/7 on-call coverage. It's a small team, so the role carries broad scope.
The Role
We're looking for an engineering manager who can lead a team of experienced SRE engineers and raise the standard of what reliability looks like in a blockchain infrastructure context.
The team is technically capable. What it needs is someone who can set engineering direction, build the conditions for good work, and think clearly about reliability as a discipline: SLOs, error budgets, blameless postmortems.
What We're Looking For
Systems thinking. You have a genuine understanding of distributed systems and large-scale infrastructure. You don't need to be the most senior engineer technically, but you need to be credible to people who are.
Reliability. You've worked in or led a team that takes SRE seriously. You know what error budgets are actually for, when SLOs are miscalibrated, and how to run postmortems that improve things.
Automation. You get uncomfortable when skilled engineers spend time on work a machine could do. You've built teams that automate away the repetitive work rather than just absorbing it.
People development. You have a track record of engineers growing under your leadership, ideally some of them moving on to bigger things.
Comfort with unusual territory. Blockchain infrastructure has properties that don't map cleanly onto standard cloud operations. You don't need prior Web3 experience, but you shouldn't be put off by it either.
