Job Description

Job Description

We’re seeking a hands-on CTO Advisor to stabilize reliability (stop regressions, reduce Sev-1s), install a lightweight SDLC / SRE / MLOps cadence, and leave behind simple runbooks and dashboards the team can operate.

This is an advisor role (not a line-manager) : you design gates, coach leads, and facilitate incident and release hygiene.

Type : Advisor (contract)

  • Time : 10–20 hrs / week (90 days), then 2–4 hrs / month
  • Comp : Equity + $TMAI only (no cash)
  • Reporting to : CEO Location : Austin preferred; open to remote (US / EU / APAC time-zones)

What You’ll Do (Responsibilities)

  • Establish release gates in CI / CD (tests / coverage, static checks, feature flags, canary / shadow) and clear rollback / kill-switch triggers.
  • Implement SRE fundamentals : 3–5 SLOs (e.g., data freshness, job success rate, API latency / availability, exception closure time) with an error-budget policy.
  • Enforce Change & Exceptions Logs ; drive post-mortems (Sev-1 / 2) with action items and owners.
  • Pair with Quant to harden AI index safety (model / versioning, parity tests, drift / health alerts).
  • Produce concise runbooks & dashboards ; coach engineering leads; hand back the system.
  • What You Won’t Do (Scope guardrails)

  • No day-to-day people management or sprint ownership.
  • No wallet signatory or payment approvals.
  • No changes to liquidity or emissions policy (owned by the $TMAI council).
  • Qualifications

  • Must-have
  • 4+ years leading engineering in crypto (protocol / DeFi, exchange, market / data infra, or comparable).
  • Proven SDLC / DevOps / CI-CD and SRE practice (SLOs + error budgets + incident response).
  • Experience shipping data / ML systems or MLOps basics (versioning, parity tests, safe rollout).
  • Excellent technical writing and async collaboration.
  • Nice-to-have
  • Smart-contract security / audit handoffs; keys / secrets / multisig hygiene.
  • Prior work with index / market-data pipelines or exchange connectivity.
  • Success Metrics (first 90 days)

  • Reliability : measurable reduction in failures (e.g., Sev-1 / MTTR ↓ ≥20%; regression escapes ↓ ≥30%).
  • Hygiene : 100% prod changes pre-logged; Sev-1 post-mortems with actions ≤72h; SLOs live and reported monthly.
  • Adoption : release gates and runbooks in use by named owners without advisor involvement.
  • Collaboration

  • Operating Chair (monthly business review), Quant (AI indices), $TMAI observers (liquidity dependencies), Finance & Controls (audit evidence).
  • How to Apply

  • Share :
  • 1) a redacted SLO doc you authored
  • 2) a redacted incident / runbook you wrote, 3) two sentences on your biggest reliability turnaround and the gate you added afterward.
  • About Token MetricsToken Metrics builds AI-driven on-chain indices and analytics. Our goal is to make crypto investing simple, reliable, and institution-grade. We’re shipping AI-automated indices, integrating with venues like Pendle / DEX / CEX, and preparing for public-markets readiness.
