That includes everything on the path of RPC requests before they hit the blockchain and block production and event delivery once transactions are executed.\nLoad balancing, caching, queueing, transaction simulation and block production is processed by the services written and maintained by the infrastructure team. These services operate at large scale and process terabytes of data. The platform is based on open-source software, such as Kubernetes, NATS, Jetstream, Blockscout, Grafana, Postgres and Near-core, alongside a few internally developed services.\nAll internally developed services are written in Go and implement core pieces of functionality such as Mempool management, NEAR chunk distribution, transaction pre-processing and simulation.\nAbout the position\nThis role is split between two responsibilities: software engineering (80%) and site reliability (20%).\nSoftware Engineering projects include:- Shield - a security service to protect users from making errors or executing malicious transactions.- Mempool - a system to store/reorder transactions before they can hit the blockchain.- Relayer - translates RPC calls on the read and write path from the end user.- Explorer - Blockscout-based system that provides a user interface.- Aurora Cloud - a system to automatically provision multiple infrastructure stacks for Aurora Engine.- CLI tools for pubsub and streaming infrastructure operations.- Indexers and blockchain event aggregation pipelines for monitoring purposes.\nReliability Engineering includes:- Automating configuration and maintenance of software components such as K8s, NATS, Influxdb, Postgres, Cloudflare using e.g. Ansible, Terraform, Helm and kubernetes operators.- Design and implementation of cloud-agnostic solutions without exclusively relying on specific cloud vendors.- Optimizing the latency and throughput of the pub-sub infrastructure.- Incident management, troubleshooting, monitoring, distributed tracing and recovery automation.ย \nAbout you\nYou are a software engineer with experience of creating and maintaining backend systems. You are familiar with the entire Linux stack and can easily find a bottleneck in a distributed system.

๐ Please reference you found the job on Remote OK, this helps us get more companies to post here, thanks!
When applying for jobs, you should NEVER have to pay to apply. You should also NEVER have to pay to buy equipment which they then pay you back for later. Also never pay for trainings you have to do. Those are scams! NEVER PAY FOR ANYTHING! Posts that link to pages with "how to work online" are also scams. Don't use them or pay for them. Also always verify you're actually talking to the company in the job post and not an imposter. A good idea is to check the domain name for the site/email and see if it's the actual company's main domain name. Scams in remote work are rampant, be careful! Read more to avoid scams. When clicking on the button to apply above, you will leave Remote OK and go to the job application page for that company outside this site. Remote OK accepts no liability or responsibility as a consequence of any reliance upon information on there (external sites) or here.
