Original posting

Monax | Systems Reliability Engineer | ONSITE | Edinburgh or London | £60k - £80k + equity (ESOP) Monax were pioneers of permissioned ledgers and smart contracts responsible for the Hyperledger Burrow project. We are using the technology we have developed to build a legal agreements network to allow new and more efficient forms of legal transacting, exploiting the benefits of various decentralised, distributed, and masterless technologies. (Our website reflects a previous iteration of the company) You would work on the deployment of sets of blockchain validators to the cloud along with supporting services using Kubernetes. The role will be implementing and honing testing and continuous deployment of our blockchain node (Burrow), encryption services, and smart contract middleware. We need to blend existing distributed technologies with newer decentralised ones in a principled way and have the ability to recover gracefully from failures. Considering the ambient security environment and what falls through the cracks between systems will be essential. You would work with our technical CEO who has developed much of our existing deployment and our CTO as part of the platform team. Most of our code is written in Go, Solidity, and JavaScript. We will deploy GCE, AWS, OpenShift, bare metal data centres, and personal servers. Our technical work interacts with economics and law in a way we think is very interesting. Join us. We have workspace in Edinburgh and East London. We like to mix flexible remote work with quality weekly face-to-face time, but will consider personal preferences and circumstances. Commuting distance strongly preferred but not absolute requirement. For more details and to apply: https://monax.bamboohr.co.uk/jobs/view.php?id=5
