Product Manager
About the role
Who you are
- Proven experience as a Product Manager in infrastructure, platform, or distributed systems, with a track record of driving technical roadmaps from strategy to execution
- Strong technical understanding of large-scale infrastructure systems (distributed systems, cloud infra, networking, or node operations), with the ability to engage engineering teams on architecture and design trade-offs
- Hands-on experience with infrastructure tooling such as Kubernetes, containerization, auto-scaling, CI/CD pipelines, or monitoring/observability systems
- Demonstrated success building scalable platforms or infra products that support external operators, contributors, or customers
- Ability to translate complex technical requirements into clear product strategy and priorities
- Experience leading cross-functional projects that span engineering, product, and operations teams
- Strategic foresight to anticipate future scaling challenges and design solutions that balance decentralization, reliability, and performance
- Deep understanding of infrastructure systems and distributed architectures, ideally with hands-on experience in validators, node operations, or blockchain middleware
- Proven experience working on platform or infra products that required scaling across large complex environments (multi-cloud, multi-region, or multi-chain)
- Strong familiarity with auto-scaling solutions such as Kubernetes
- Prior background in DevOps, SRE, or distributed systems engineering
- Experience building infra in mission-critical environments (finance, large-scale distributed systems, or blockchain middleware)
- Knowledge of blockchain ecosystems, ideally Chainlink itself
What the job involves
- This role sits at the intersection of distributed systems, cloud infrastructure, and blockchain operations
- You’ll partner closely with world-class engineering teams to build resilient deployment pipelines, seamless configuration management, and automated scaling solutions that keep the Chainlink network performant under ever-increasing demand
- Own the Node Operator infrastructure roadmap, setting the vision and driving execution
- Partner with engineering to design and deliver cutting-edge infra tooling
- Shape the long-term scaling strategy for NOPs as usage of Chainlink grows across new products, chains and markets
- Influence core infrastructure and architecture decisions that define how the network evolves
- Drive innovation in operator workflows, enabling faster, safer, and more efficient deployments
- Align cross-functional stakeholders (engineering, economics, product, NOP relations, ELT) around infra priorities to ensure coherent execution
The application process
- We carefully review all applications and aim to provide a response to every candidate within two weeks after the job posting closes
- We want to fully consider your experience and skills, and you will hear from us regarding the status of your application shortly after the closing date

Attention Chainlink Labs Job Seekers:
Fake recruiter scams have become increasingly common on LinkedIn, especially in the Web3 space. All official Chainlink Labs recruiters should have the Verifications symbol next to their name. When you click the symbol you will see a workplace verification that indicates, “Chainlink Labs: Verified using work email.”
If you are contacted by a LinkedIn profile that does not carry this verification but claims to be a recruiter with Chainlink Labs, we recommend you do not interact with these individuals, e.g., responding to requests for additional information, clicking on links, filling out forms, etc. We appreciate your continued collaboration in helping to keep our community and ecosystem safe.
