About us

At Flashbots, we're building the foundations of the future Internet and financial system. As an R&D organization, we focus on MEV through our dual engines of open research and breakthrough product development – like mev-geth, Flashbots Protect, MEV-Boost, MEV-Share, Flashblocks, and BuilderNet.

Our vibe is accelerationist, exceptional, kind, and independent. We are explorers, innovators, builders, and thinkers. We thrive on action, curiosity, and impact - driving the future in an iterative way while keeping an eye towards the long term version we want to see in the world.

Flashbots is hiring a Senior DevOps Engineer with a platform-first mindset to fortify the infrastructure powering our Block Builders.
You’ll work at the intersection of distributed systems, blockchain infrastructure, and trusted compute thus ensuring that our production environment remains scalable, resilient, and secure.

What You’ll Do

Platform Reliability & Operations
Contribute, support and or lead the deployment, operation, and reliability of the block builder platform from Kubernetes clusters to bare-metal environments.

Maintain and scale distributed infrastructure spanning L1 and L2 environments, ensuring consistent performance under high-throughput and latency-sensitive workloads.

Drive observability, incident response, and performance optimization through modern SRE and DevOps practices.

Infrastructure Development & Automation
Build automation and tooling to simplify operations, improve developer experience, and reduce toil across our systems.

Design CI/CD workflows for high-assurance environments, including TEE-based systems and blockchain node infrastructure.

Contribute to the design of reproducible, secure environments across multiple clouds and hosting providers.

Cross-Functional Collaboration
Partner with backend, research, and protocol teams to support rollup infrastructure, MEV systems, and next-generation execution environments.

Participate in the envisioning, proofing, and deployment of new L2 infrastructure components and TEE-integrated products.

Operational Excellence & Open Source
Lead root-cause investigations, reliability reviews, and postmortems for production systems.

Contribute to open-source tooling and documentation that powers the Ethereum ecosystem.

Who You Are

Seasoned DevOps/Infra Engineer
+4–10 years of experience operating complex production systems. Ideally spanning both traditional infrastructure and crypto-native environments.

Technical Generalist with Depth
Strong command of Linux, networking, and system internals. You understand how to scale, secure, and debug systems from the OS to the application layer.

Automation & Tooling Expert
Proficient with modern infrastructure tooling (Terraform, Ansible, Helm, Prometheus, Grafana) and comfortable designing CI/CD pipelines for secure distributed systems.

Programming Fluency
Familiarity with scripting (Python, Bash) for operational workflows. Ideally skilled in Go or Rust for building automation and integration tooling.

Collaborative & Curious
You thrive in async, remote-first teams, communicate with clarity, and proactively improve shared systems. You’re deeply curious about MEV, Ethereum, and the frontier of decentralized compute.
