Build platform features in Go, including custom Kubernetes operators and controllers.

Design GitOps workflows with ArgoCD to streamline continuous deployment.

Create infrastructure-as-code patterns with Terraform and Helm to provision and manage clusters.

Work on distributed storage using Ceph and WEKA.

Build observability systems with Prometheus and Grafana to surface cluster health and performance.

Optimize container networking with Cilium and related technologies.

Design federated Kubernetes architectures for multi-cluster management.

Automate recurring infrastructure work and reduce operational overhead for production workloads.

What We're Looking For

At least 2 years of software development experience, with around 5 years preferred.

Hands-on experience writing Go for Kubernetes environments, including production-scale cluster management.

Experience with distributed storage such as Ceph or WEKA and federated, multi-cluster Kubernetes architectures.

Experience with GitOps and ArgoCD, plus infrastructure as code using Terraform, Helm, or comparable tools.

Familiarity with container networking, CNI plugins, service meshes, and observability tools such as Prometheus and Grafana.

Experience with cloud Kubernetes offerings, bare-metal infrastructure, or GPU workloads is useful.

Automation experience and contributions to Kubernetes or other open-source infrastructure projects are valued.
