Mission Statement

The additional yield that MEV provides has become a core part of staking returns, and the MEV-Boost architecture operates close to the core of the Ethereum protocol. The Aestus MEV relay was established by members of the Ethereum solo-staker community with one core mission: to improve economic decentralisation on Ethereum.

Aestus has been live on mainnet for 18 months and we are responsible for auctioning ~5% of Ethereum mainnet blocks. We’ve recently attracted community funding that provides us the opportunity to grow our team.

This is a competitive and dynamic environment where milliseconds matter. We are looking for a DevOps engineer whose primary responsibility will be to optimise our architecture with performance in mind. New ecosystem developments such as shared sequencing, and re-staking also present us with new opportunities - which you will have an essential role in exploring.

Summary of the Role

  • You’ll be working in a small, friendly 3-4 person team with an opportunity to make your mark.
  • Experiment with new technologies and make data-driven improvements to the performance, observability, and stability of our platform.
  • Architect, configure and deploy global infrastructure on leading cloud platforms.
  • Take responsibility for incidents and become a part of the on-call team.
  • Engage in community discussions and contribute to the evolution of this ecosystem.

Qualifications

  • A hacker mentality with substantial self-driven experience of linux sys admin, git, docker and k8s.
  • Familiarity with common database technologies and networking protocols.
  • Fluency in any of golang, python or rust.
  • An understanding of the Ethereum staking and MEV ecosystem.
  • A willing to get involved in novel technical challenges beyond a strict DevOps remit.

Benefits

  • Remuneration dependent on skills and experience.
  • Work from anywhere on a contract basis with flexible hours.
  • Paid travel + expenses to Ethereum conferences and team meetups.
