Job Summary
We are looking for a Senior Staff Engineer to join the Reliability Engineering team that operates a bare-metal Kubernetes platform across multiple metro locations. The platform's architecture is defined and the build is underway, you will help deploy, operate and continuously improve it, from OS provisioning on racked servers through a multi-cluster fleet managed from a central management plane, with a software-defined data plane deployed via GitOps.
This is a deliberately broad role.



We are not looking for someone who owns a layer and hands everything below it across a boundary. You will work alongside the teams that own the physical hardware, the underlay network, and the data plane software, and you need enough fluency in all three to reason about a fault before escalating it. Where you find the design falls short in practice, we expect you to say so and to shape how it evolves.
You will join the Digital Interconnection Engineering organization. The team owns the full application stack for interconnection and the Kubernetes platform for the software-defined data plane across multiple metros. We operate with an automation-first, GitOps-driven culture and a strong commitment to operational rigor, documented runbooks, and blameless postmortems.
