About Our Client

Our client is an innovative product company leveraging cutting-edge cloud technologies to build scalable and reliable platforms. They provide an environment where engineers can influence architecture decisions, drive automation, and contribute directly to business growth.

Job Description

- 10+ years in Dev Ops, platform engineering, or SRE roles with a sustained Kubernetes focus. Consuming a managed cluster someone else operates will not meet the bar - this role requires ownership of the platform itself.
- Expert-level production Kubernetes experience, on EKS or upstream Kubernetes, including upgrades, backup and restore, and rolling deployments across environments.
- Deep internals knowledge: etcd, control plane, scheduler, admission controllers, and the API server - enough to debug behaviour, not only configure it.
- Security primitives in practice: RBAC, Network Policies, CRDs, and Pod Security Admission standards.
- Hashi Corp Vault integration using the Kubernetes auth method and secrets injection, in a production environment.
- Service mesh in production: hands-on Istio and/or Linkerd deployment and operation.




- AWS infrastructure depth: IAM, VPC, EC2, ALB/NLB, and Cloud Watch.
- Automation toolchain: Terraform, Helm, and scripting in Bash, Python, or Go, with working Git Ops and CI/CD practice.

- Strong understanding of Linux, networking, security, and platform reliability.
