Conduit – The Onchain Compute Company

At Conduit, we’re building the rollup-native cloud platform that will scale Ethereum.

Crypto builders have been held back by a lack of onchain compute — without the ability to process a high volume of transactions quickly and cheaply, onchain apps and ecosystems can’t build high quality user experiences.

Rollups have emerged as the answer to this problem. Just as servers work together to scale compute in web2, so too can rollups scale onchain compute in web3. But building and operating your own rollup is difficult and time-consuming. That’s where Conduit comes in.

As the rollup-native cloud platform, Conduit combines web2 engineering best-practices with web3 rollup technology to make it easy for anyone to launch and maintain their own chain. By making infrastructure simple and onchain compute abundant, similar to how AWS and GCP did for web2, we can unlock the next wave of innovation in the crypto ecosystem.

The Conduit platform has seen massive growth since going live in 2023. We run the largest chains in production, including Proof of Play, Zora, Aevo, and more. This translates to 200+ chains across mainnet and testnet and over $1B in total-value-locked (TVL). We’re operating on the bleeding edge of crypto, co-evolving with our customers and integration partners, and pushing the limits of blockchain scalability and modularity.

This success has been recognized and accelerated through a $37M Series A, co-led by Paradigm and Haun Ventures — two of the best investors in the industry.

We’re an elite team that’s previously worked at Meta, Brex, Wish, Compound, Chainalysis, Immunefi, Amazon, Avara/Aave, Paradigm, and more. We’re headquartered in San Francisco, with team members all over the world.

We’re looking for ambitious, talented builders that want to help scale Ethereum and bring crypto compute to the masses. Join us!

About the Role

In this role you’ll be working closely with the CEO to architect, maintain, and scale the infrastructure and services that power Conduit. We value people who can quickly obtain a deep technical understanding of new domains and enjoy being self-directed and identifying the most important problems to solve.

As a Site Reliability Engineer here, you should:

• Know your way around a shell

• Have experience running large Kubernetes clusters, in the range of 100-1,000 nodes

• Can design a highly available scalable distributed system

• Have helped a team mature with standardized tools and processes around stability, observability, and scaling

• Have experience working with cloud providers like AWS or GCP

We think you’ll find this work really exciting if you:

• Have experience designing, implementing, and running production services

• Are confident in managing and monitoring large-scale infrastructure deployments

• Can debug problems across the stack, such as networking issues, performance problems, or memory leaks

• Own problems end-to-end, and are willing to learn and pick up whatever knowledge you’re missing to get the job done

• We estimate that someone with 3-5+ years of experience as a software or Devops engineer will quickly contribute to our challenges

Our tech stack

Our infrastructure is built on Kubernetes, Postgres, and Cloud Tasks on GCP. While we value experience with these technologies, we are primarily looking for engineers with strong technical skills and the ability to quickly pick up new tools and frameworks.
