About Gnosis

We believe in a redistributed future. Gnosis builds new market mechanisms to make this future possible. Through decentralized platforms on the Ethereum blockchain, we enable the distribution of resources—from assets to incentives, and information to ideas—at individual, societal, and global scales.

Our products are interoperable, allowing you to create, trade, and hold assets. Our decentralized platforms and applications provide foundational infrastructure, assuring security, stability, and foresight for the longevity of blockchain-driven technologies.

This role in particular is about our decentralized batch exchange protocol (CowSwap) which enables access to fair and arbitrage-free marketplaces.

  • Cloud Service Tools: AWS, Kubernetes, Terraform
  • Continuous Integration Services: Github Actions, Gitlab CI
  • Operating systems: Linux distributions (Ubuntu, Debian, Alpine)

What you’ll do:

  • Continuously improve our monitoring to alert on symptoms and not on outages
  • Help our on-call rotation to avoid incidents from happening
  • Debug production issues in any part of the stack
  • Design, automate and test procedures for incident management and disaster recovery
  • Document your knowledge & actions to turn them into repeatable then automatable processes
  • Improve our deployment process to make it as boring as possible
  • Run our infrastructure with Terraform and Kubernetes
  • Plan the growth of CowSwap’s infrastructure going forward

Who you are:

  • You like thinking about edge cases, failure modes, and adversarial behaviors in IT Systems.
  • You know your way around Unix and the Linux Shell
  • You have strong programming skills in at least one language
  • You have experience with observability tools like Grafana or ElasticSearch
  • You have experience with Nginx, Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform, or similar

It’s a plus if you bring:

  • Understanding of the Ethereum blockchain/ecosystem
  • Rust knowledge
  • Statistics knowledge (in the context of anomaly detection)
