Job description

  • Implement and operate Kubernetes infrastructure (AKS): cluster lifecycle, networking, resource management, auto-scaling, and multi-tenancy patterns.
  • Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions and ArgoCD for automated testing, container builds, and GitOps deployments.
  • Develop Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, Bicep) to provision and manage Azure resources with consistency and auditability.
  • Operate container registries (ACR), artifact management, and image security scanning workflows.
  • Implement and maintain observability infrastructure: Azure Monitor, Application Insights, Prometheus, Grafana-including dashboards, alerting, and distributed tracing.
  • Manage async processing infrastructure: Celery workers, Redis queues, and workflow orchestration patterns supporting AI agent execution.
  • Implement platform security controls: network policies, pod security standards, Key Vault integration, RBAC, and private endpoint configurations.
  • Support database infrastructure: PostgreSQL management, backup/recovery, connection pooling, and performance tuning.
  • Create self-service tooling and templates that enable development teams to deploy and operate services with minimal friction.
  • Diagnose and resolve infrastructure issues across clusters, pipelines, and cloud services; perform root-cause analysis and implement preventative improvements.
  • Collaborate with Platform Architects, Backend Engineers, and ML Engineers to translate architecture designs into reliable infrastructure.

Requirements

  • 5+ years professional experience in platform engineering, SRE, or DevOps roles; experience supporting AI/ML workloads is a strong plus.
  • Strong Kubernetes experience: cluster operations, networking (Ingress, network policies), storage, autoscaling, and troubleshooting.
  • Solid Infrastructure as Code experience with Terraform, Bicep, or equivalent tools.
  • Production experience with Azure cloud services: AKS, ACR, Key Vault, Azure Monitor, Virtual Networks, Private Endpoints, and Azure Policy.
  • Strong CI/CD experience: GitHub Actions (self-hosted runners, reusable workflows), ArgoCD, or similar GitOps tooling.
  • Proficiency in Python for automation, scripting, and tooling.
  • Experience with container security: image scanning, runtime security, network policies, and least-privilege patterns.
  • Experience with observability stack: Prometheus, Grafana, centralized logging, and alerting configuration.
  • Familiarity with async task processing: Celery, Redis, or equivalent message queue patterns.
  • Strong Linux systems administration and networking fundamentals.
  • Operational mindset with strong troubleshooting skills across infrastructure layers.
