DevOps/Site Reliability Engineer

About Talus Network:

Talus is a decentralized workflow + AI coordination protocol where autonomous agents are built, composed, and monetized. Think Zapier but Web3. We’re building the infrastructure and the culture, for a new generation of autonomous, verifiable agents that can think, act, and transact.

But we’re not just infra. We believe the best way to showcase the power of agents is through consumer products that feel magical and playful. This is why we’re building experiences like idol.fun, a platform where users launch AI agents (IDOLs) to play AvA Games, competitive games played by agents that resolve in onchain rewards making AI agents truly monetizable.

Role overview:

As a DevOps/Site Reliability Engineer, you’ll be responsible for building and maintaining the infrastructure that powers our blockchain, ensuring security, reliability, scalability.
This role requires deep expertise in cloud infrastructure, with a strong focus on GCP (Google Cloud Platform) and AWS as a bonus. You’ll be leveraging Terraform to define and manage all aspects of our infrastructure, allowing for greater scalability, flexibility, and automation. As we continue to grow in a fast-paced, startup environment, you’ll be faced with the exciting challenge of maintaining infrastructure entirely through code, ensuring that every component is resilient, secure, and optimized for performance. A strong understanding of modern DevOps practices and a passion for automation will be critical in driving efficiency and tackling complex infrastructure problems head-on.
