Job description

DevSecOps needed. SRE? Platform Engineer? Whatever you call it, we need you.

About JTX

JTX is Jito Labs' consumer trading product โ€” 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 Role

This 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 Do
  • Own and operate end-to-end infrastructure for JTX across backend services, frontend systems, databases, observability, third-party integrations, and globally distributed cloud environments

  • Build and maintain reliable deployment workflows including CI/CD pipelines, preflight validation, rollback procedures, and post-release monitoring

  • Design reproducible infrastructure using Terraform, Ansible, and infrastructure-as-code best practices

  • Improve system-wide observability through metrics, logging, alerting, and monitoring to ensure uptime, correctness, and low latency across the stack

  • Establish strong operational discipline through actionable alerting, incident response processes, and clear runbooks

  • Manage and secure cloud and edge infrastructure including Cloudflare routing, CDN deployment, WAF, DDoS protection, VPN mesh networking, and zero-trust access controls

  • Own infrastructure security posture including secrets management, OS hardening, firewall policies, key rotation, and incident response readiness

  • Support globally distributed SQL infrastructure and performance-sensitive Rust/Axum API systems

  • Build internal tooling and automation that improve developer productivity and operational efficiency

  • Define and continuously raise the bar for infrastructure reliability, scalability, and security across the organization

What Weโ€™re Looking For
  • 5+ years of experience in Infrastructure Engineering, Platform Engineering, SRE, or DevOps supporting low-latency, highly available, production-critical systems

  • Strong Linux and systems fundamentals with experience operating both bare-metal infrastructure and cloud environments

  • Deep experience with infrastructure-as-code and automation tooling, particularly Terraform and Ansible in production environments

  • Strong understanding of networking and web infrastructure concepts including load balancing, CDN caching, DNS routing, TLS, and secure traffic management

  • Experience with observability and monitoring platforms such as Grafana, Prometheus, Loki, InfluxDB, ClickHouse, or similar tooling

  • Strong operational intuition across infrastructure, databases, applications, and external APIs with the ability to troubleshoot issues end-to-end

  • Solid security instincts, including experience with secrets management systems such as Vault or similar technologies

  • Strong understanding of database operations including replication, pooling, connection behavior, and performance considerations

  • Excellent written communication skills with the ability to create clear documentation, operational runbooks, and repeatable processes

  • High ownership mentality with the ability to operate autonomously in a small, fast-moving environment

Bonus Points
  • Experience with Solana infrastructure and tooling, including validators, RPCs, blockchain data services, transaction landing, and wallet custody systems

  • Strong understanding of low-latency trading or consumer-facing fintech infrastructure

  • Experience working with Rust, cloud-hosted PostgreSQL databases, and secrets management systems for securing sensitive credentials

What You Won't Find Here
  • A platform team to hand things off to

  • Bureaucracy between you and a decision

  • Work that doesn't matter

Stack
Rust / Axum ยท PostgreSQL ยท Terraform ยท Ansible ยท HCP Vault ยท Cloudflare ยท GitHub Actions ยท Grafana Cloud ยท Tailscale ยท Teraswitch bare-metal ยท Ubuntu 24.04
Benefits
  • Above market compensation and multiple forms of equity

  • 100% of employee health benefits covered by employer

  • All-expenses-paid team retreats and conferences

  • Generous PTO

  • Weekly meal voucher

  • And thatโ€™s just the start!
