KAIO is building a blockchain protocol to eliminate inefficiencies in legal, financial, and operational workflows for private markets.
We go beyond simple tokenisation by enabling seamless, on-chain access to private market assets across platforms and public networks. Our core product focuses on the tokenisation of investment funds using blockchain infrastructure, laying the foundation for composable digital securities integrated with institutional services such as collateralised lending, custody, and secondary trading.
The Role
We are seeking a Senior platform engineer who owns the foundation that makes continuous delivery possible. In a DevOps organization, platform is not a support function — it is what allows product teams to ship with confidence.
You will own cloud architecture, CI/CD, observability, security posture, release quality, and incident response. The scope is broad by design. We are a startup and priorities shift. What matters is that you can reason from first principles and adapt without losing rigor.
This is a senior, hands-on role suited for someone who has owned applications end-to-end and is comfortable operating with autonomy in a fast-moving, technically demanding environment.
If you need detailed task lists to know what to work on, this role is not a fit.
What You Own
Cloud architecture and infrastructure as code
CI/CD pipelines, environments, and release quality gates
Security controls embedded across the SDLC — not bolted on after
Observability that informs real decisions
Incident response, runbooks, and post-mortems
Architecture health and technical debt — identifying it, documenting it, driving resolution
Disaster recovery planning and testing
What We're Looking For
5+ years running production cloud systems in startup or scale-up environments
Strong fundamentals: networking, distributed systems, infrastructure economics
Hands-on with infrastructure as code and major cloud platforms
Comfortable owning incident response end to end
Experience embedding security into pipelines, not after them
Opinionated — and able to defend your opinions clearly
Blockchain or DeFi experience is a plus. Strong systems thinking is required.
How We Work
Engineers are trusted to own their domain end-to-end
Healthy debate and disagreement are expected
Decisions are documented and revisited as conditions change
We optimise for long-term clarity and leverage, not short-term speed
What This Role Is Not
This is not a role for:
Engineers who follow patterns without understanding them
People who avoid technical friction to keep the peace
Engineers who prioritise technical elegance over real-world security and reliability
What We Offer
Competitive salary and benefits
Opportunity to solve complex, high-impact problems in blockchain and private markets
High autonomy and ownership — you will shape core protocol decisions
A fully remote, collaborative, and intellectually honest engineering culture
