Job Description
Who you are
You have 4+ years of experience operating high-availability distributed systems, with direct experience running Proof of Stake (PoS) validators on EVM-based chains. Your proficiency in Go and Rust allows you to build and automate deployments effectively, ensuring optimal performance of execution and consensus clients.
You are skilled in managing upgrades, snapshots, and sync performance, serving as the primary technical point of contact for validator operators. Your ability to produce run-books and maintain clear documentation is essential for supporting validator operators and keeping staking participation healthy.
What you'll do
As a Validator Engineer at Ritual, you will own the uptime, performance, and reliability of the validators. You will be responsible for orchestrating client upgrades, parameter changes, and hard-forks with zero downtime across staging and mainnet. Your role will involve profiling and patching critical paths to optimize performance.
You will actively support validator operators via Discord, ensuring they have the necessary tools and documentation to participate seamlessly in both testnet and mainnet. Your expertise will help in building and automating bare-metal and cloud deployments for the validators using the existing full-fledged simulation framework.
What we offer
Ritual provides a highly competitive compensation package, including an annual discretionary bonus and an optimized tax structure compared to most web3 startups. You will enjoy top-tier benefits, with 100% of premiums covered on high-quality healthcare and an aggressive company 401k match. The position is fully remote or hybrid, depending on your preference, and you will have opportunities to participate in both virtual and in-person events.
