ABOUT US

Chainlink Labs is the primary contributing developer of Chainlink, the decentralized computing platform powering the verifiable web. Chainlink is the industry-standard platform for providing access to real-world data, offchain computation, and secure cross-chain interoperability across any blockchain. Chainlink Labs helps power verifiable applications for banking, DeFi, global trade, and gaming by collaborating with some of the world’s largest financial institutions, notably Swift, DTCC, and ANZ. Chainlink Labs also works with top Web3 teams, including Aave, Compound, GMX, Maker, and Synthetix. Chainlink Labs was ranked as one of the Global Top 100 Most Loved Workplaces by Newsweek 2025.
The Observability Team enables Chainlink development and empowers engineers to continue building and supporting crucial products and services that have a profound impact in the blockchain industry. Reliability is vital to the success of our company. As a Senior SRE, you will help us accelerate and enable other engineering teams by increasing self-service and decreasing cognitive load.
This job would be perfect for someone who has a strong DevOps mentality, is passionate about building and maintaining a mature GitOps environment, and has experience focusing on observability. The entire engineering team is expanding, and you would have plenty of opportunities to build, learn, and grow.
We all have different backgrounds and are determined to help you succeed no matter where you are or who you are. If you think you would do a great job at Chainlink, we are looking forward to speaking with you, even if you don’t match 100% of the job requirements: those describe people we’ve usually had a great time working with, but they’re not a tick-box exercise.

REQUIREMENTS

  • 7+ years of relevant professional experience. You probably have worked on a devops, infrastructure, SRE, and/or platform team before
  • Ability to develop software outside of the scope of typical infrastructure requirements and configurations
  • Experience programming in C, C++, Java, Python, Go, Perl, or Ruby
  • Expert knowledge in all aspects of designing, developing, and managing large real-time systems
  • Experience with monitoring and logging. You know how to export metrics using Prometheus, have built a Grafana dashboard or two, and have experience with a centralized logging solution like an ELK Stack, Splunk or Grafana Stack.
  • Experience with distributed systems and container orchestration. You have maintained or even built Kubernetes clusters before and feel comfortable deploying completely new services on them
  • Strong communication skills. You can give and receive constructive feedback, and you do not shy away from planning meetings and code reviews

DESIRED QUALIFICATIONS

  • Excitement for blockchain, Web 3.0, and similar decentralized technologies.
  • Experience running any infrastructure in the blockchain/web3 space
  • Ability to scale systems sustainably through mechanisms like automation, and evolve systems by pushing for changes that improve reliability and velocity
  • Experience working remotely in a distributed team
  • A strong desire to grow and challenge yourself. We would expect you to constantly find ways to improve and automate services to reduce toil
