Web3 Foundation accelerates the development and adoption of the decentralized web. We’re providing the framework and setting the standards for an ecosystem so that the most cutting-edge projects can work together, multiplying their benefit to society as a whole.

We’re building the future of identity, privacy, financial markets and commerce through blockchains and other cryptographic technologies. At the core of this work is Polkadot - a platform that enables blockchains of all kinds to interact and communicate with one another. This is an opportunity to work at the forefront of technological development and join in shaping the future of society for the better.

Operations security is at the heart of decentralised protocols and applications. In order to safeguard security best practices in the Web3 community, we are looking for an outstanding SecOps engineer. Web3 Foundation’s SecOps team, which consists of SREs and security engineers, is responsible for defining, implementing, and maintaining security baselines and best practices across the foundation, and the Web3 ecosystem. The successful candidate will join our SecOps team, and work closely with internal and external partners to achieve these goals.

We are a lean team with a flat organisation. The company is based in Zug, Switzerland.

Tasks

Be part of the the SecOps team that strives to design and implement high security standards for the Foundation
Help implement and coordinate secure processes for critical operations, such as secure validator infrastructure and chain monitoring services, assess and monitor associated risk factors
Help develop and secure our community initiatives such as the 1000 Validator Program for Polkadot and Kusama, and Web3 Foundation’s Bug Bounty Program
Help design and implement security education programs, e.g. crypto wallet how-tos and best practices, for Web3 staff as well as the Web3 ecosystem at large

Requirements

Bachelors or Masters degree in computer Science or related field
Minimum of 3 years working as a SecOps engineer or similar
Solid background in systems, blockchain, and security
Solid understanding of the current threat landscape
Hands-on experience with incident monitoring and response
Hands-on experience with infrastructure hardening, phishing protection, and cloud security
Experience with Python and Typescript: both coding and code review
Experience with Rust for code review
Ability to think strategically and work hands-on, independently as well as part of a team
Excellent interpersonal and communication skills in English

A plus

Understand secure key management practices, as required for digital certificates, crypto-currencies, or key ceremonies
Experience with SDLC and continuous integration
Experience with security standards, such as NIST, and BSI

Benefits

Competitive compensation and employee benefits
Regular company retreats at unique locations located around Europe
Opportunity to work in a multinational, high-performance team with diverse backgrounds (i.e. physics, computer science, machine-learning algorithm design, legal, financial products, management consulting, marketing & advertising, etc.)

To apply to this position, we ask you to answer a few questions in the application form, and to submit your CV and a cover letter, telling us a bit about yourself and your motivation to join us.
