About the role

As a site reliability engineer in Dune focused on Data Infrastructure you will play a key role in ensuring our data platform scales to accommodate an ever-growing volume of public blockchain data. This is a role that involves thinking about large scale distributed systems and distributed databases, and is ideal for anyone passionate about those topics. 

We are building a data platform that 

  • Can ingest and process large volumes of data

  • Allows third parties to ingest data

  • Facilitates performant SQL queries across datasets

  • Will serve as the foundation for many, if not all future Dune products.

 

In this role you will:

  • Design and develop distributed systems in a principled way and take part in high impact architectural decisions

  • Engage in stimulating technical challenges in topics such as distributed systems, very large databases, SQL processing, data modelling, or systems performance

  • Work with the rest of the engineering team to build stable, scalable systems.

  • Advocate for a good balance between building new features and improving existing systems.

  • Write code mostly in Go and Kotlin with a strong emphasis on good design and performance.

  • Help unblock the rest of the engineering team by owning automation, CI and other processes.

  • Collaborate in a respectful team environment that is fully distributed.

You might be a great fit for this role if:

  • You are a strong generalist with fundamental computer science knowledge. You use this knowledge to easily adapt to new technologies and scenarios, and to find the right solutions for the problems at hand.

  • You have an understanding of distributed system design. Our work is as much about understanding and designing systems as it is about coding in a particular language.

  • You have great collaboration and communication skills. We work on the principle that the best output emerges from effective team work and respectful/constructive discussions.

  • Have experience architecting, developing, and troubleshooting systems.

  • Have worked with or keen to learn Terraform.

  • Have deep experience with Kubernetes as a platform.

  • Have experience with clouds, such as AWS.

  • Have experience with systems like Apache Spark, Presto or Trino

 

Not required but a plus if:

  • You have a degree in Computer Science, related field, or equivalent experience

  • You have experience with database internals, large data storage and processing, and systems performance

  • Coding experience in Go or Kotlin

 

Perks and Benefits

  • A competitive salary and equity package 🚀

  • Our employee equity scheme has great terms with a heavily discounted strike price (~70%) and a 10 year exercise window 🙌

  • 🏖 5 weeks PTO + local public holidays (that can be swapped to suit you)

  • 🧑‍💻 A fully remote first approach with truly flexible working hours within a distributed team - you structure your own day, enabling huge flexibility

  • Good health is important, so we offer Dune employees private medical insurance as standard 🩺

  • We believe in paid parental leave 👶 to help you celebrate this important milestone, transition to your new life, and bond with your new baby. We offer 16 weeks to primary caregivers and 6 weeks to secondary caregivers, fully paid. Plus a 2 week part time phased return at full pay to help you get used to your new (and slightly more complex!) schedule.

  • Regular offsites with the team in various exciting locations (we went to Tuscany 🇮🇹 earlier this year and have just returned from a week in Berlin 🇩🇪 )

  • On top of this 👆 each person gets a travel allowance to use to connect and co-work with someone or a team of people for a few days.

  • Stipend for setting up your home office / co-working space

  • Work with some of the best people you’ll ever get to meet!

  • And of course, you get some awesome Dune swag! ✌️😎

You may be just the right candidate for this or other roles.
