About the role

We are seeking an experienced Kubernetes & OpenShift Engineer to design, deploy, and operate enterprise-grade Red Hat OpenShift container platforms running mission-critical workloads across on-premises and cloud environments.

Responsibilities

• Own the end-to-end platform lifecycle — from cluster provisioning and hardening, through workload onboarding and developer enablement, to ongoing operations and continuous improvement.
• Partner with application teams, security engineers, and infrastructure stakeholders to deliver a stable, secure, and developer-friendly container platform.
• Bring deep expertise in OpenShift and Kubernetes internals, strong Linux fundamentals, and a security-first mindset.

Requirements

• Five or more years of experience operating container platforms in production, with at least three years on Red Hat OpenShift.
• Deep, hands-on knowledge of Kubernetes and OpenShift internals, including operators, CRDs, RBAC, and networking.
• Strong Linux administration skills, including networking, performance tuning, and troubleshooting.
• Hands-on experience with infrastructure-as-code tools such as Ansible, Terraform, or Helm.
• Solid experience implementing CI/CD pipelines on OpenShift or Kubernetes using Tekton, Jenkins, or Argo CD.
• Strong scripting skills in Bash, Python, or Go.
• Working knowledge of cluster monitoring, logging, and tracing tools.
• Exposure to service mesh implementations (OpenShift Service Mesh, Istio, Linkerd).
• Familiarity with regulated environments such as PCI-DSS, HIPAA, or SOC 2.
• Experience with GitOps workflows using Argo CD or Flux.

Qualifications

• Red Hat Certified Specialist in OpenShift Administration or Architect-level Red Hat certification preferred.
