Tools necessary for excelling in this role include Kubernetes, Docker, Helm, Keycloak Identity Broker, Okta SSO/OIDC, Terraform/IaC, CI/CD pipelines (GitLab CI, GitHub Actions, or Jenkins), and security scanning tooling (Trivy). This role will serve as the infrastructure and security authority within a lean, agile modernization team rebuilding an enterprise Microsoft Power Apps system into a cloud-native platform. You will play a critical role in provisioning and securing Kubernetes cluster environments, engineering automated build and deployment pipelines, deploying and managing high-availability Keycloak identity broker services federated to enterprise Okta, and safeguarding all infrastructure, database, and storage assets across non-production and production environments. About the Job * Architect, provision, configure, and maintain production-grade Kubernetes cluster environments hosting containerized front-end, backend, and identity services. * Deploy, configure, and administer a highly available Keycloak Identity Broker instance running in Kubernetes, federating authentication to enterprise Okta via SAML 2.0 and OIDC. * Configure identity brokering rules, realm roles, client scopes, and token exchange policies within Keycloak to power secure authentication for React and Spring Boot services. * Design, build, and maintain end-to-end CI/CD pipelines for automated image builds, vulnerability scanning, automated testing gates, and zero-downtime rolling deployments via Helm. * Implement robust platform security controls, including Kubernetes Ingress controllers (NGINX/Traefik), TLS certificate automation (cert-manager), network policies, and container image scanning (Trivy). * Automate secrets management and configuration injection across environments using tools such as HashiCorp Vault, AWS Secrets Manager, or Kubernetes External Secrets Operator. * Provision, monitor, and maintain supporting backing infrastructure including managed PostgreSQL instances and secure Amazon S3 storage buckets. * Establish centralized logging, monitoring, and alerting frameworks (Prometheus, Grafana, Loki or EFK stack) to ensure high system observability and reliability.
