Working knowledge of information security issues
Experience writing automation tools & eagerness to "automate all the things"
Commitment to implementing reliability and security best practices
Capacity planning experience, including resource optimization and load testing
Systematic problem-solving approach, combined with a strong sense of ownership and drive
Standout experience:
Experience with Prometheus/Grafana for metrics aggregation/visualization and other monitoring and alerting tools
Experience with infrastructure-as-code tools such as Terraform, Ansible, Chef
Experience in Building and managing Virtualized systems (KVM, OVM, Containers/Docker) and ability to read and understand source code
Knowledge of one or more load testing tools (K6, Locust, JMeter, etc.)

About the role:
As a Site Reliability Engineer, you will be accountable for maintaining and operating Syndica’s blockchain infrastructure platform with other infrastructure engineers.
A successful candidate must have demonstrable experience working with at least one major cloud platform language (AWS, Azure, or GCP) via Kubernetes and previous work in SaaS application development and operations.
You will be working closely with the Data and Infrastructure teams on building robust solutions to ensure the highest level of reliability, performance and security of our services. Your work will span the entire end-to-end lifecycle of our systems: initial design and deployment, ongoing monitoring and incident response, and comprehensive analysis of systems to iteratively improve reliability, performance, and security.
Key responsibilities:
Administer overall site availability, security, latency, and system health.
Effective provisioning, installation/configuration, operation, and maintenance of services and system software and related infrastructure.
Develop comprehensive monitoring solutions to provide full visibility to the different system components using tools like Kubernetes, Prometheus, Grafana, ELK, Datadog, New Relic, etc.
Enable the development team to release code quickly and reliably by ensuring full observability of systems and automated detection of performance and integration issues.
Formulate technical performance measures and implement them using queries, logs, code instrumentation and other analytics tools.
Design dashboards and visualizations that effectively convey technical measures
Troubleshoot issues at multiple layers of deployment, from hardware, to operating environment, network, and application to conduct root cause analysis and make recommendations from your findings.
Work with development teams to ensure best practices for scalability, reliability, and security are designed and implemented from the start.
Forecast changes in demand and capacity to establish appropriate scalability plans and drive decisions on the right-sizing of servers, storage and other resources.
Design and perform high-throughput stress testing to determine system capacity limits and identify points of failure.
Troubleshoot critical customer issues related to Syndica’s RPC, APIs, and App Deployments.
What does success in this role look like?
In three months, you will have become our go-to for overall site availability, security, latency, and system health. You will have taken on independent code review responsibilities and be collaborating on the design of new features.
In six months, you have earned the trust of the team. You are delivering tasks through the entire SDLC, from design through development, with minimal guidance, and you are helping to effectively mentor new engineers joining the team.
In twelve months, you have established a cadence of predictable, on-time delivery without cutting corners.

Frequently Asked Questions
- We prioritize job seekers as our customers, unlike bigger job sites, by charging a small fee to provide them with curated access to the best companies and up-to-date jobs. This focus allows us to deliver a more personalized and effective job search experience.
- Salaries for the engineering jobs on our site range from $100K-$200K. On average, senior engineer positions on our EchoJobs are about $160K.
- The EchoJobs positions have been sourced and vetted from the top companies to work for in the US as a software engineer, including LinkedIn and other reputable job sites. We also have syndicated jobs from companies that have just raised funding, as well as those that have great unique products and culture. From all of these sources, our founder, Morgan, has also resourced the company's authenticity in terms of their website, public appearance, and more.
- Yes, our users asked us for just this, so now our search filters allow you to search for your top jobs via location, as well as by onsite, remote, or both. Approximately 30% of our jobs are remote, so you’ve got the best options for you!
- We have not yet implemented this option, but are considering doing so in the future. For the moment, you would need to cancel your subscription, and resubscribe when you wanted to come back.
- We add new jobs to EchoJobs every day! We scan our sources for the newest jobs, verify them, and post them to EchoJobs within minutes. We add about 2,000-3,000 new jobs for you each day!
- From starting your job search to getting hired, the entire job search process can take us software engineers anywhere between 3-6 months. However, at EchoJobs, we’re striving to shorten this duration by finding the best, newest jobs for you, so you can do less job searching, and more applying.
- We’d recommend checking EchoJobs daily, as we add new jobs to the site each day. Additionally, if you got a chance to read our previous email on “what makes EchoJobs different from any other job search tools,” we also recommended that you set a job alert based on your job filters, so if you get emails on those new jobs, you could be checking more than once per day.
- If you decide to continue with us after the 1-month trial, we definitely recommend this, as we all know it usually takes 3-6 months to find a quality job as a software engineer these days. So to best support you, we just adjusted our membership options at EchoJobs to monthly, 3 months, or 12 months (this option is more for passive job seekers looking a little bit for the future if they want to come back to work or make a job switch potentially. This lets you see what’s out there in case an even better fit job becomes available.)
- EchoJobs is truly the only job site of its kind. We want to be THE spot for you to find the best job for you, and haven’t encountered any other company doing this. Other job sites are in niches besides software engineering or focus on a small portion of engineering jobs (like a specific coding language). In the words of Morgan, our founder, “I think what makes EchoJobs different is the amount of jobs, frequency that we add new jobs (we add 2,000-3,000 new jobs daily!), and the powerful search engines to find exactly the job you want more easily and efficiently. We can provide you with the most jobs that are vetted by us, we’ll continually find more new jobs for you, and we make it easier for you to apply and get hired.
