Site Reliability Engineers (SREs) are responsible for keeping all user-facing services and other Chainlink production systems running smoothly. SREs are a blend of pragmatic operators and software craftspeople that apply sound engineering principles, operational discipline, and mature automation to our environments.

The experience of our team feeds back into other engineering groups within the company, as well as to Chainlink Node Operators.

Your Impact

• Use your on-call shift to prevent incidents from ever happening
• Make monitoring and alerting alert on symptoms and not on outages
• Document every action so your findings turn into repeatable actions–and then into automation
• Debug production issues across services and levels of the stack.

Chainlink is the industry standard oracle network for connecting smart contracts to the real world. With Chainlink, developers can build hybrid smart contracts that combine on-chain code with an extensive collection of secure off-chain services powered by Decentralized Oracle Networks.

Managed by a global, decentralized community of hundreds of thousands of people, Chainlink is introducing a fairer model for contracts. Its network currently secures billions of dollars in value for smart contracts across the decentralized finance (DeFi), insurance, and gaming ecosystems, among others. The full vision of the Chainlink Network can be found in the Chainlink 2.0 whitepaper.

Chainlink is trusted by hundreds of organizations—from global enterprises to projects at the forefront of the blockchain economy—to deliver definitive truth via secure, reliable data.  This role is location agnostic anywhere in the world, but we ask that you overlap some working hours with Eastern Standard Time (EST).
