World Wide Technology (WWT) provides technology solutions spanning AI, digital, cybersecurity, cloud, and infrastructure. The Engineer - Application Development will design, build, and operate hybrid platform environments supporting the WWT Prototype Platform, with a focus on OpenShift, Kubernetes, GitOps-driven CI/CD, automation, observability, and shared application services. The role also includes platform support, incident response, documentation, collaboration with application and infrastructure teams, and participation in AI-enabled engineering workflows.\n\nResponsibilities\nManage and maintain Kyverno admission policies across development, test, and production environments; update image verification policies, registry allow-lists, and pod security constraints based on security requirements and operational learnings\nAdminister secrets management platform; maintain policy frameworks, help teams configure and rotate secrets, and resolve credential injection failures and compliance violations\nCreate and maintain Grafana dashboards and alerts tracking cluster health, resource utilization, pod scheduling, deployment throughput, and pipeline performance\nAnalyze Splunk logs and observability data to identify performance bottlenecks, resource contention, and OpenShift cluster scaling opportunities; implement optimization changes (scaling policies, resource requests, queue tuning, quota management) and partner with the Infrastructure team on capacity planning recommendations (Infrastructure owns cluster management, but you drive observability-based improvements)\nMonitor and optimize GitHub Actions runner performance; maintain runner pools across multiple scale sets, diagnose queue buildup and job failures, implement capacity improvements\nDebug and improve ArgoCD and Codefresh pipeline reliability; trace deployment failures from CI through GitOps sync, resolve race conditions, and enhance pipeline architecture based on user patterns\nMaintain technical runbooks and troubleshooting guides for common platform issues (policy blocks, deployment failures, secrets issues, registry access, runner problems, etc.; keep documentation current as platform evolves\nRespond to platform support requests via the ServiceNow queue — troubleshoot deployment failures, authentication issues, policy blocks, platform access issues, and user environment misconfigurations, escalating complex issues appropriately\nCollaborate with application teams, security/policy owners, and cluster operations on cross- cutting platform concerns\nParticipate in incident response and root cause analysis when critical platform issues impact multiple users; follow established operational procedures\nThis role requires comfort working alongside AI‑powered tools while maintaining strong engineering judgment, validation, and accountability for outcomes; engineers are expected to contribute to the adoption and continuous improvement of AI‑enabled workflows by providing feedback and identifying new opportunities for automation\nEngineers are expected to actively use approved AI tools and agents to assist with platform operations, troubleshooting, automation, and documentation under established governance and best practices, as part of their day‑to‑day work\nEngineers will create and maintain AI skills that abstract the consumption of the WWT Prototype customer base, allowing them to agentically interact with the platform\n\nSkills\n3–5 years of progressive experience in DevOps, platform engineering, SRE, or \ninfrastructure roles\nHands-on experience managing Kubernetes and Red Hat OpenShift clusters in \nproduction environment\nDemonstrated experience with Kyverno or similar admission control / policy enforcement \ntools\nDemonstrated experience with service mesh architectures, traffic management, or load \nbalancing in Kubernetes environments\nExperience building and maintaining CI/CD pipelines and automation workflows using \ntools such as GitHub, GitHub Actions, Jenkins, Codefresh, APIs, and GitOps-based\nExperience with monitoring and observability tools (Prometheus, Grafana) and log \nanalysis (Splunk, ELK, or similar)\nHands-on Linux system administration and troubleshooting skills\nStrong problem-solving ability; comfort debugging distributed systems and complex \ndeployment failures\nComfort scripting or coding in languages such as Shell, Python, or Node.js\nEffective communication skills — ability to explain technical concepts to non-technical users and document issues clearly\nComfort with rapid context-switching between reactive support and proactive \noptimization work\nA self-starter mindset with strong ownership, organization, and a passion for learning new technologies\n\nBenefits\nHealth (Medical & Prescription)\nDental Care\nVision Care\nOnsite Health Centers (MO & IL)\nEmployee Assistance Program\nWellness program\nProfit Sharing\n401k Plan with Company Matching\nLife and Disability Insurance\nFlexible Spending Accounts\nTuition Reimbursement\nPTO & Holidays\nParental Leave\nMedical Leave\nMilitary Leave\nBereavement Leave\nDay of Caring\nFamily Planning Benefits\nNursing Mothers Benefits\nVoluntary Legal Insurance\nVoluntary Supplemental Accident/Illness/Hospital Insurance\nVoluntary ID Theft Protection\nPet Insurance\nEmployee Discount Program\n\nCompany Overview\nWorld Wide Technology provides technology and supply chain solutions for large public and private organizations.
