Requirements and responsibilities


DevSecOps needed. SRE? Platform Engineer? Whatever you call it, we need you.About JTXJTX is Jito Labs' consumer trading product — a high-performance trading terminal built on Solana. We're a lean, high-output team building something that sits at the intersection of execution quality, user experience, and on-chain infrastructure. We own a meaningful portion of Solana's block production, and JTX is how we bring that edge directly to traders.The RoleThis is a high-ownership IC role. The stack is designed. Now it needs someone who can own it, harden it, automate it, and make sure it stays up while traders are trading. You will be running globally distributed infra and you'll be the person who cares most about it (this is an extremely high ownership role).You'll work directly with engineering leadership. No ticketing system standing between you and a decision. If something is broken, it's your problem. If something can be automated, you'll automate it. If something is insecure, you'll fix it before anyone notices. Get shit done!What You'll DoOwn and operate end-to-end infrastructure for JTX across backend services, frontend systems, databases, observability, third-party integrations, and globally distributed cloud environmentsBuild and maintain reliable deployment workflows including CI/CD pipelines, preflight validation, rollback procedures, and post-release monitoringDesign reproducible infrastructure using Terraform, Ansible, and infrastructure-as-code best practicesImprove system-wide observability through metrics, logging, alerting, and monitoring to ensure uptime, correctness, and low latency across the stackEstablish strong operational discipline through actionable alerting, incident response processes, and clear runbooksManage and secure cloud and edge infrastructure including Cloudflare routing, CDN deployment, WAF, DDoS protection, VPN mesh networking, and zero-trust access controlsOwn infrastructure security posture including secrets management, OS hardening, firewall policies, key rotation, and incident response readinessSupport globally distributed SQL infrastructure and performance-sensitive Rust/Axum API systemsBuild internal tooling and automation that improve developer productivity and operational efficiencyDefine and continuously raise the bar for infrastructure reliability, scalability, and security across the organizationWhat We’re Looking For5+ years of experience in Infrastructure Engineering, Platform Engineering, SRE, or DevOps supporting low-latency, highly available, production-critical systemsStrong Linux and systems fundamentals with experience operating both bare-metal infrastructure and cloud environmentsDeep experience with infrastructure-as-code and automation tooling, particularly Terraform and Ansible in production environmentsStrong understanding of networking and web infrastructure concepts including load balancing, CDN caching, DNS routing, TLS, and secure traffic managementExperience with observability and monitoring platforms such as Grafana, Prometheus, Loki, InfluxDB, ClickHouse, or similar toolingStrong operational intuition across infrastructure, databases, applications, and external APIs with the ability to troubleshoot issues end-to-endSolid security instincts, including experience with secrets management systems such as Vault or similar technologiesStrong understanding of database operations including replication, pooling, connection behavior, and performance considerationsExcellent written communication skills with the ability to create clear documentation, operational runbooks, and repeatable processesHigh ownership mentality with the ability to operate autonomously in a small, fast-moving environmentBonus PointsExperience with Solana infrastructure and tooling, including validators, RPCs, blockchain data services, transaction landing, and wallet custody systemsStrong understanding of low-latency trading or consumer-facing fintech infrastructureExperience working with Rust, cloud-hosted PostgreSQL databases, and secrets management systems for securing sensitive credentialsWhat You Won't Find HereA platform team to hand things off toBureaucracy between you and a decisionWork that doesn't matterStackRust / Axum · PostgreSQL · Terraform · Ansible · HCP Vault · Cloudflare · GitHub Actions · Grafana Cloud · Tailscale · Teraswitch bare-metal · Ubuntu 24.04BenefitsAbove market compensation and multiple forms of equity100% of employee health benefits covered by employerAll-expenses-paid team retreats and conferencesGenerous PTOWeekly meal voucherAnd that’s just the start!
