About Us
Parity is one of the world's most experienced core blockchain infrastructure companies, building the open-source technologies that will lay the foundations for the new decentralised internet. Parity was founded by Dr. Gavin Wood, co-founder and former CTO of Ethereum, the primary engineer behind the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM), inventor of the Solidity programming language, and primary author of the Ethereum Yellowpaper.
We believe in a decentralised web that respects the freedom and data of individuals, and empowers developers to build better services. Our vision is to create a world based on truthful, rather than trustful, interactions.
With a remote-first, global team, Parity is building open-source technologies, including Polkadot, Substrate, and Kusama.
People in Our Collective Are:
Highly motivated to contribute to Parity’s mission and be part of something bigger
Excited to work on projects that are groundbreaking and complex
Autonomous workers that self-initiate, but also collaborate well with others
Taking maximum accountability and having minimum ego at work
Comfortable with chaos and adapting to the ever-changing Web3 space
Continuously educating themselves about Parity and the wider ecosystem
About the Team:
The SRE team is core to the Polkadot platform’s reliability, scalability, and performance. We operate where software development meets operations and ensure our systems operate with speed, efficiency, and resiliency as we scale.
The SRE team writes code, designs systems, and automates processes. Our Site Reliability Engineers collaborate closely with developers and the Polkadot community in a federated and decentralised system.
About the Position:
This is a crucial role where you will bring your technical abilities to recognise opportunities and be able to effectively influence a wide group of stakeholders.
It is a unique opportunity to help an innovative organisation to scale where feedback is direct, honest, and understands that a check box approach doesn’t get results.
You will ensure that releases are delivered effortlessly, balancing the competing requirements of velocity, quality and efficiency in a decentralised organisation through automation, data and delivering to outcomes.
About You:
A strong desire to automate and streamline releases
Proficiency in a programming language e.g. Rust
Experience owning a complex, federated release management process
Ability to articulate the purpose of release management, key outcomes, how to track them, and measure improvements
Skilled at communicating core release management principles—version control, risk management, traceability—to diverse stakeholders
Basic understanding of security processes and principles
Strong knowledge of CI tools
Proven experience in building effective automation
Why Join Us:
Competitive remuneration packages based on iterative market research, including tokens (where legally possible).
“Future of work” environment that’s remote-first and self-initiating with flexible hours.
Teammates that are genuinely excited about their impact and projects.
Access to the brightest minds in this space to learn about Web3 and develop your skills and knowledge while on the job.
Becoming part of the wider ecosystem (career and networking opportunities)
Team and company-wide retreats.
Work laptop.
