Job description

• Location: United States
• Sector: Blockchain
• Source: web3.career

Hi, we’re Ondo Finance. Our mission is to provide institutional-grade, blockchain-enabled investment products and services. We have both a technology arm that develops decentralized finance technology, and an asset management arm that creates and manages tokenized funds. We were the first company to tokenize exposure to US Treasuries, and have since expanded into several other assets. We are also focused on incubating protocols that can support both tokenized real‑world assets and traditional crypto.

Founded by folks from Goldman Sachs Digital Assets Team, we’re backed by some of the best investors in the world including Founders Fund, Coinbase Ventures, Pantera Capital, Tiger Global, and more. We are currently the leaders in the space in terms of AUM and are well capitalized to continue growing the firm. We’re fully remote, with team members across many countries.

About the role

As an Infrastructure Engineer at Ondo, you’ll help build and run the platform our financial products run on. Our team owns the cloud infrastructure, Kubernetes clusters, delivery pipelines, monitoring, and tooling that every engineering team at Ondo depends on, so you’ll see a wide range of systems rather than one.

You won’t do this alone. You’ll work closely with a diverse team of infrastructure engineers and developers. Expect to debug real production problems, write code and configuration for user‑facing applications, and see your changes running in production early. You’ll start with well‑scoped work and take on more ownership as you learn our systems.

Responsibilities

• Collaborate with development teams to build reliable financial services for our customers.
• Help the team build and improve release processes, continuous integration, and deployment automation.
• Extend application monitoring and alerting.
• Participate in an on‑call rotation together with infrastructure engineers and developers.
• Troubleshoot issues with user‑facing and internal services, and debug production incidents.

Requirements

• Genuine curiosity and desire to learn new technologies and break things.
• Hands‑on Kubernetes experience: you can deploy, inspect, and debug workloads, even if you’ve never run a cluster yourself.
• Understanding of operating systems, especially Linux internals.
• Experience with “infrastructure-as-code” or “infrastructure-as-data” approaches to infrastructure management.
• Understanding of the GitOps approach to application management.
• Experience with the Prometheus stack or another monitoring solution.

Nice to haves

• Experience building infrastructure in a major cloud provider (AWS, Google Cloud, or Azure).
• Programming ability in Go, Python, or another modern, widely adopted language.
• Experience running stateful workloads in production, not only stateless services.

What we offer

• Competitive compensation including salary, future token rights, and/or equity (according to your preferences) — we’re well‑funded and believe that great talent deserves great compensation
• Full benefits (medical, vision, and dental) and flexible vacation policy (PTO)
• Small remote‑first team across many countries — you’ll be an early team member helping shape our vision, culture, and design practices
• A+ colleagues — our team includes alumni from: Goldman Sachs, Blackrock, Two Sigma, Bridgewater, SpaceX, AWS, Meta, Google, Pinterest, McKinsey, Circle, Uniswap, Phantom
• Best‑in‑class investors — we are proud to be backed by leading crypto experts and VCs, including Pantera Capital, Founders Fund and Coinbase Ventures
