Role overview
Parity Technologies builds core infrastructure to power a better internet—one that respects the freedom and data of individuals—and to empower developers to create better services through decentralized tech. Parity’s technologies include Substrate, a flexible framework for quickly building blockchains, and Polkadot, a protocol for connecting and securing blockchains. The goal of the Devops team is to make the whole process of open-source development as stable and seamless as possible.
