This is greenfield infrastructure work with real production impact.
What You'll Work On
- Design and maintain Tekton Pipelines, Tasks, Triggers, and EventListeners running on an RKE2 Kubernetes cluster
- Build and evolve a curated OCI builder image supporting rootless Podman-in-Podman for container builds within Tekton pods
- Manage GitHub webhook integration with Tekton EventListeners for automated PR validation and post-merge build pipelines
- Extend CI infrastructure to cloud providers (Azure, GCP, AWS) as on-premises capacity constrains scale
- Maintain RBAC, ServiceAccounts, Secrets, and platform resources for the pipeline cluster




- Integrate security scanning (Aikido), test reporting (PDash), and artifact management (Artifactory) into the pipeline
- Contribute to SLSA-compliant build provenance and image signing for production promotions
- Operate an on-call rotation covering the CI cluster, EventListener health, and pipeline SLA adherence
