Join Figment as a Senior Dev Ops Engineering Manager and lead the team responsible for running blockchain nodes and infrastructure at scale . This team plays a critical role in our mission to support the decentralized internet by operating high-performance, secure, and reliable blockchain nodes across dozens of protocols.

In this role, you will own the successful execution of new chain launches, treating each as a time-sensitive project with its own stakeholders, dependencies, and risks. You are accountable for ensuring launches happen on time and to spec — and when issues arise, you are expected to elevate early and clearly.

If you thrive in fast-paced, high-stakes environments and bring a bias for ownership, urgency, and follow-through, this is the role for you.

• Lead and mentor a team of Dev Ops engineers responsible for maintaining production blockchain nodes across a growing portfolio of protocols during their entire lifecycle.
• Own and drive new chain launches from genesis — ensuring deadlines are met, stakeholders are coordinated, and blockers are escalated early.
• Serve as project manager for team deliverables, ensuring all tasks are clearly tracked, prioritized, and executed. When a commitment is made, you own it.
• Maintain high visibility into the status of every chain launch or upgrade. Leadership and cross-functional teams look to you for updates on statuses and updated Jira dashboards/tasks.
• Proactively elevate risks, shifts in scope, or missing inputs with clarity and urgency.
• Manage team workflows including Jira boards, retrospectives, and delivery tracking while continuously improving team velocity and execution quality.
• Maintain a high bar for operational readiness — including on-call processes, monitoring, and incident response — to ensure production-grade reliability.
• Support and grow your team through 1:1s, feedback, performance reviews, and development planning.
• Foster a team culture grounded in accountability, urgency, and ownership — with clear expectations around follow-through and autonomy.
• Collaborate with stakeholders across protocol, product, and customer teams to align on priorities, scope, and delivery expectations.
• Own hiring and onboarding of new team members, building a high-performing team with a shared sense of responsibility.

• 5+ years of hands-on experience as a Dev Ops Engineer — particularly in Linux-based environments managing production systems and networking at scale.
• 4+ years of experience managing engineers (5–10 reports), with a focus on people development, delivery accountability, and team health.
• 3+ years of experience managing project-based delivery cycles, including setting priorities, coordinating stakeholders, tracking deadlines, and unblocking execution.
• Demonstrated success operating infrastructure with 24/7…
