- Automate operational workflows to reduce the overhead of running production workloads.
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

- Experience with distributed storage such as Ceph or WEKA, federated Kubernetes architectures, and multi-cluster management.
- Experience with GitOps and ArgoCD, plus infrastructure as code using Terraform and Helm or comparable tools.
- Familiarity with container networking, CNI plugins, service mesh technologies, and cloud platforms such as AWS, GCP, or Azure.
- Experience automating infrastructure or operational workflows; familiarity with Prometheus, Grafana, GPUs, or bare-metal infrastructure is useful.

About this listing
Published on Ashby under the board identifier Clera, which is the name the employer’s own job board carries. RoleSprint has not verified the company’s registered or trading name, so it is shown exactly as published rather than tidied up.
RoleSprint is not the employer and not a recruiter. Applications are made on the employer’s own site and never reach us; what RoleSprint does is help you decide whether a role is worth your time and prepare for it if it is.
