Responsibilities

Position Purpose: As a Senior Container Engineer on the Containers team, you’ll build, run, and continuously improve our Kubernetes platform, the foundation for application delivery. You’ll work hands-on with cluster operations, networking, ingress, storage, and core platform services, partnering closely with development, security, and operations teams to support day-to-day platform needs and drive automation through infrastructure as code and CI/CD. Using cloud-native and open-source tools, you’ll help keep the platform scalable, reliable, and secure while improving performance and developer experience so teams can ship faster and with confidence.

This is a highly hands-on role where your work directly shapes developer experience and platform reliability, enabling teams across the company to ship faster, safer, and on a scale.

Primary duties will include:

• Operate and maintain Kubernetes platforms (Rancher/RKE2 or AKS), including upgrades, scaling, performance tuning, backups, and HA patterns.

• Contribute to automation and golden paths by enhancing Terraform modules, Helm/Kustomize templates, GitHub Actions workflows, and self-service onboarding.

• Implement and support GitOps workflows with Argo CD, including safe deployments, rollbacks, and drift detection.

• Assist with container supply chain and registry management (ACR), including immutability and vulnerability scanning.

• Help maintain platform observability (Datadog/Prometheus, Graylog/Splunk) through dashboards, alerts, and basic SLOs.

• Partner with development and infrastructure teams for onboarding, troubleshooting, documentation, and incident response; participate in an on-call rotation.

• Follow established security and compliance guardrails (RBAC, secrets management, change controls).

Qualifications

To land this role you will need:

• 3+ years in Platform, SRE, or DevOps roles with hands-on production Kubernetes experience.

• Experience with GitOps and modern CI/CD tooling (e.g., Argo CD, GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps).

• Working knowledge of Infrastructure as Code (Terraform), packaging (Helm/Kustomize), and Linux/networking fundamentals.

• Scripting experience (Bash and/or Python) and comfort with YAML-driven workflows.

• Experience troubleshooting distributed systems using logs, metrics, and traces.

What makes you stand out:

• Deep experience with Rancher/RKE2 or AKS in production environments.

• Policy-as-code leadership (Kyverno/Gatekeeper), supply chain security (cosign, SBOMs).

• ACR governance, artifact promotion strategies, and hardened self-hosted runners.

• Experience designing or operating SOX/SOC-aligned CI/CD controls and evidence pipelines.

• Experience integrating AI/ML-driven automation into containerized infrastructure and DevOps workflows.

Education / Certification Requirements:

• Bachelor’s degree in computer science, engineering, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience
