What We're Looking For
- At least 2 years of software development experience, with around 5 years preferred.
- Hands-on experience writing Go for Kubernetes environments and managing production Kubernetes clusters at meaningful scale.
- Experience with distributed storage such as Ceph or WEKA, and designing multi-cluster or federated Kubernetes architectures.
- Practical experience with GitOps and ArgoCD, plus infrastructure as code using Terraform, Helm, or comparable tools.
- Familiarity with observability tools such as Prometheus and Grafana; open-source infrastructure contributions are a plus.
