Key Responsibilities also included

OpenShift Platform Engineering (L3 Support)

- Serve as the final escalation point (L3) for complex OpenShift cluster issues, performing deep root-cause analysis (RCA) on platform, networking, storage, and application-layer failures.
- Design, deploy, and manage highly available OpenShift clusters (on-prem, bare metal, VMware, and/or hybrid cloud AWS/Azure/GCP ROSA/ARO).
- Perform end-to-end cluster lifecycle management: installation (IPI/UPI), upgrades, scaling, node management, and disaster recovery.
- Manage and troubleshoot core OpenShift components: etcd, API server, SDN/OVN-Kubernetes, Ingress/Router, Operators, Machine Config Operator (MCO), and Cluster Autoscaler.




- Own and optimize persistent storage integrations (ODF/Ceph, NFS, CSI drivers) and container networking (Multus, NetworkPolicies, Service Mesh/Istio).

- Support GPU-enabled workloads: configure and troubleshoot NVIDIA GPU Operator, Node Feature Discovery (NFD), and GPU resource scheduling/quotas.
- Manage model lifecycle infrastructure: model registry integration, model serving runtimes (vLLM, TGI, ONNX, Triton), and inference endpoint scaling/autoscaling.
- Collaborate with Data Science/ML Engineering teams to onboard AI/ML workloads, troubleshoot pipeline failures, and optimize resource utilization (CPU/GPU/memory) for training and inference jobs.

CLI / Platform Operations
