Responsibilities

  • Build and operate a multi-tenant, cloud-native SaaS platform used by engineering teams for deployment.
  • Write, test, review, version, and maintain production-grade platform tooling such as CLIs, operators, controllers, and automation services.
  • Develop and govern GitHub Actions workflows, repositories, permissions, security controls, deployment environments, and internal GitHub integrations.
  • Manage GitOps deployments, infrastructure as code, Kubernetes manifests, progressive delivery, rollback mechanisms, and secrets management.
  • Design and operate Kubernetes clusters, including workload scheduling, tenant isolation, resource boundaries, autoscaling, networking, and managed cloud Kubernetes services.
  • Build observability capabilities covering structured logging, distributed tracing, metrics, SLIs, SLOs, and alerting thresholds.
  • Participate in on-call support, create runbooks, and lead postmortems that produce platform-level improvements.
  • Debug issues across the full stack, from Kubernetes scheduling failures through Spring Boot stack traces and Hibernate query plans.
  • Partner with engineering teams on architecture and operability concerns, mentor engineers on CI/CD and platform practices, and contribute to technical discussions.

  • Experience with repository governance, GitHub Advanced Security, GitHub Apps, fine-grained access tokens, GitHub Environments, permissions, audit logging, and SSO/SAML integration.
  • Production experience with ArgoCD or Flux, Terraform, Helm, and/or Kustomize.
  • Experience with progressive delivery, automated rollback, and pipeline-integrated secrets management.
  • Deep Kubernetes experience covering deployments, StatefulSets, ConfigMaps, Secrets, quotas, HPA/VPA, network policies, and multi-tenant cluster design.
  • Experience with AWS, Azure, or GCP, including networking, IAM, managed Kubernetes, and managed databases.
  • Experience with Docker image builds, image hardening, registries, and vulnerability scanning.
  • Experience building observability systems using structured logging, distributed tracing, and metrics tools such as Prometheus or Grafana.
  • Experience with on-call practices, runbooks, and postmortems.
  • Preferred experience includes on-premises or JBoss-style workload migrations, Kafka or RabbitMQ operations, OPA/Gatekeeper or other policy-as-code systems, and financial-services domain knowledge.

Benefits

  • Unlimited vacation subject to local regulations and business priorities.
  • Hybrid working arrangements and inclusive paid time off policies, including voting, bereavement, and sick leave.
