Datacenter Technician/Systems Engineer - Frankfurt/Remote (m/f/d)
At Staking Facilities, we've been building blocks since 2017. For our blockchain operation we strive to have minimal 3rd party dependence to stay as decentralized as possible. We operate the whole stack internally - from physical hardware in the datacenter up to the software we develop internally.
We are opening a second datacenter location in the Frankfurt area and we're looking for a Datacenter Technician/Systems Engineer. This new engineer is going to help us operate, secure and scale systems that power low-latency blockchain and trading operations. Your work will span everything from hands-on work with state of art hardware to improve our automation stack and infrastructure services. No two weeks will look the same, one week you will spend a lot of time in the datacenter, the other week you will be working from home configuring pipelines/software stack.
This role is for someone living nearby Frankfurt with a car and driving license. The role requires someone with a love for hardware, a curious and hands-on mindset, and the ability to bring clarity and take ownership in complex technical environments. For us milliseconds matter and change is a constant.

- You are located near Frankfurt, open to frequent travel to our datacenters in the area and occasional travel to Munich. You have a driving license and ideally own a car.
- You enjoy working closely with your teammates and being part of a small, connected team. You don't have to be the life of the party-we value getting to know each other and spending time together.
You'll become an integral part of our Infra team that keeps our physical foundation layer stable, reliable and secure. This foundation layer is used by our Solana, Ethereum, Sui and Trading teams. Your work will vary, and you'll get your hands on lots of new tech.
- Build racks from scratch - install hardware, cable, label and document
- Deploy new hardware - network gear and servers (We work with vendors like Arista, Supermicro, Juniper)
- Configure, customize and tune bare metal servers
- Maintain and configure server hardware together with documentation
- Manage changes of our setupContinuously improve the documentation in Netbox

- Long term career growth opportunity in a blockchain infrastructure company
- You'll work with cutting edge infrastructure, blockchain technologies, and HFT
- A socially and ethically responsible employer, pushing boundaries but not at the cost of the planet
- A high trust, remote first culture with a base in Munich and a globally distributed team
- 30 days holiday plus bank holidays
- Flexible working hours
- Your peers bring strong expertise and a collaborative mindset, always eager to expand their skills, just like you
