Gensyn is a company focused on machine intelligence and its integration with human knowledge. The Engineering Manager will lead a team responsible for the reliability, security, and scalability of Gensyn’s production infrastructure and developer platform, ensuring operational excellence and fostering a high-performing engineering culture.

Responsibilities:

• Lead and grow a team of Infrastructure, Platform, DevOps/SRE, and Security Engineers: hiring, coaching, performance management, and execution
• Own the availability, scalability, and security posture of production systems: SLOs/SLIs, incident response, postmortems, reliability improvements, and hardening
• Drive delivery across ambiguous, high-stakes initiatives: roadmap planning, prioritization, and execution against tight timelines
• Partner closely with CTO and technical leads to scope work, set expectations, communicate progress, and remove blockers
• Build a strong engineering culture with high standards for operational rigor, security, and developer productivity
• Establish and evolve internal tooling and platform capabilities that improve deployment velocity, safety, and observability
• Work cross-functionally with product, security, and research to align infrastructure strategy with business and technical goals

Requirements:

• 7+ years building and operating production infrastructure/platform/security systems with real operational ownership
• Proven people-management ownership: hiring, coaching, performance management, and leading an infra/platform/SRE/security team
• Strong cloud systems + software engineering background; able to design systems and review production code
• Deep hands-on experience with modern infrastructure practices and tooling such as Kubernetes, Terraform/IaC, CI/CD, and strong observability (metrics/logs/tracing)
• Demonstrated track record scaling distributed systems with measurable reliability and/or security outcomes
• Ethereum / EVM experience - preferred background in smart contract security / auditing or building at an EVM-based protocol (L2, DeFi protocol, EVM chain, core protocol/platform infrastructure)
• Experience with distributed ML systems or GPU-heavy environments
• Experience working closely with research teams or research-adjacent engineering
• Founder or early-stage engineering leadership experience
• Meaningful open source contributions
• Formal verification, fuzzing, or advanced security testing experience in EVM contexts
