**About Us**
**The Engineering Team**
We value talented and driven craftsmen who work collaboratively to tackle complex challenges, deliver product impact, and grow as builders. Join us and shape the future of blockchain technology and decentralized finance.
The Infrastructure Platform team enables Chainlink development and empowers engineers to continue building and supporting crucial products and services that have a profound impact in the blockchain industry. Chainlink has enabled $19+ trillion TVE (total value enabled) as an undisputed leader in the oracle space. Reliability is vital to the success of our company. As a SRE Cloud Efficiency Engineer, you will help us accelerate and enable other engineering teams by optimizing cloud costs, improving resource efficiency, and ensuring financial accountability.
**This job would be perfect for someone who has a strong SRE/DevOps background, is passionate about cloud resource optimization, and has experience in managing and attributing cloud spend.**The entire engineering team is expanding, and you will have plenty of opportunities to build, learn, and grow.
We are distributed across time zones and continents, and we embrace remote work. Our on-call rotation uses the follow-the-sun pattern: you will be on-call some of the time, but your shifts will be during your day and our team is large.
We all have different backgrounds and are determined to help you succeed no matter where you are or who you are. If you think you would do a great job at Chainlink, we are looking forward to speaking with you, even if you don't match 100% of the job requirements: those describe people we've usually had a great time working with, but they're not a tick-box exercise.
