Additional Info:
- What You'll Do (The Engineering Impact)
- Engineer and architect our OCP solutions: You will design and support on-premise OCP platform, running a combination of containers and OSV, virtual machines as we march towards a private cloud implementation.
- Architect the Private Cloud: Treat our private cloud platform as a software product. You will develop and support custom Kubernetes/OpenShift operators, APIs, and developer tooling to enable seamless, self-service cloud capabilities for application teams.
- Write Advanced Automation & IaC: Write clean, testable, and robust automation scripts and Infrastructure as Code (IaC) using Go, Python, and Ansible to drive our private cloud transformation and eliminate manual toil.
- Software-Driven SRE: Bring a software engineering mindset to private cloud reliability. Build and integrate advanced observability stacks (Prometheus, Grafana, custom K8s operators) and write software to automate recovery, auto-scaling, and disaster recovery.
- Integrate AI/ML Capabilities: Write code and data pipelines that integrate advanced AI/ML platforms (like Vertex AI) directly into our private cloud infrastructure and automation workflows.
- Mentor & Champion Coding Standards: Lead by example in software craftsmanship. Mentor junior and senior developers across Polyrepo/Monorepo setups, container-native design patterns, and modern GitOps workflows.
- Your Engineering Toolkit
- To excel in this role, you should have 6 to 10 years of experience in OCP engineering, development, SRE, and DevSecOps, with a strong focus on the following:
- Private Cloud & Container Architecture:
- o Deep expertise in Kubernetes/OpenShift internals, including Operators (OLM), MachineConfig, Multus CNI, Trident, CePH and OpenShift Data Foundation (ODF).
- o Experience utilizing OpenShift Virtualization to run diverse workloads.
