Cloud Infrastructure Engineer - Kubernetes & KubeVirt (REF1242M)

Description

The company provides Kubernetes-native AI infrastructure for organisations running in the cloud, on-premises, at the edge or in sovereign data centres, with a focus on open source and avoiding vendor lock-in.

The company is young and values openness, collaboration, risk-taking and continuous growth.

You will design and run enterprise-grade Kubernetes platforms across hybrid AWS and Azure environments that support mission-critical workloads.

Responsibilities

• Design, build and run Kubernetes infrastructure that hosts both containers and virtual machines, using KubeVirt to manage both from one system and reduce complexity.
• Lead the modernisation of legacy platforms into cloud-native architectures.
• Build and maintain production observability platforms that shorten mean time to resolution and improve reliability.
• Set and enforce DevSecOps standards covering Harbor registry security, image scanning, container security controls, access management, RBAC enforcement and compliance baselines.
• Define and maintain cloud governance, security policies and compliance frameworks for the organisation.
• Automate infrastructure provisioning with Infrastructure as Code to standardise environments and shorten deployment times.
• Run Argo CD GitOps workflows that make releases reproducible and auditable across environments.
• Build and maintain GitOps CI/CD pipelines using Argo CD and Helm so infrastructure changes stay controlled and auditable.
• Set up multi-network pod configurations with Multus CNI for complex VM and container networking.
• Design and operate networking for bare-metal and hybrid clusters, including MetalLB load balancing.
• Troubleshoot advanced networking issues involving CNI plugins, secondary interfaces, IPAM and traffic routing.
• Connect KubeVirt workloads that need multiple network attachments.
• Create and maintain reusable reference architectures and automation frameworks for repeatable Kubernetes deployments.
• Lead through mentoring and technical design reviews, and work with cross-functional, geographically distributed teams.

Requirements

• A bachelor's degree, or a foreign degree equivalent, in computer science, electrical engineering, electronics engineering or a related field.
• 5 years of progressive experience after your bachelor's degree as a software engineer, software developer, systems engineer or in a related occupation.
• Academic training or work experience in each of the following areas:
• Designing and operating production-level Kubernetes clusters for enterprise workloads.
• Building and running AWS or Azure production infrastructure, including hybrid or multi-cloud architecture.
• Implementing CI/CD pipelines with Argo CD and JFrog Artifactory for automated application and infrastructure deployments.
• Automating large-scale environments with Infrastructure as Code using Terraform or Ansible.
• Administering Linux systems in production.
• Applying DevSecOps practices, including Harbor registry security, access management and compliance alignment.
• Working with monitoring and observability platforms for production systems.
