Job Title:
Software Engineer - Kubernetes, Docker & KubeVirt Integration
Location:
Dallas Only Employment Type:
12 month contract Experience Level:
Senior (5+ years)
Job Summary:
We are seeking a focused and highly skilled
Software Engineer
with strong, hands-on experience in
Windows and Linux development , containerized environments, and virtualization platforms. This role involves contributing to a modern, cloud-native software stack with
recent and relevant experience in Visual
,
Kubernetes ,
KubeVirt, Docker and exposure within C++ . If you're passionate about software engineering and thrive in environments that require deep technical expertise, we want to talk to you.
Key Responsibilities: Design, develop, and maintain C++ applications on
Windows and Linux
platforms. Work with
Kubernetes clusters
and
Docker containers
to deploy and manage applications. Integrate and support
KubeVirt
for virtualized workloads within Kubernetes. Lead the effort to
migrate existing Windows-based C++ software to Linux , optimizing for performance and maintainability. Write robust
unit tests
using frameworks such as
Google Test ,
CppUnit , or similar. Collaborate with cross-functional teams including DevOps, QA, and Product Management to deliver reliable, scalable solutions. Participate in code reviews, debugging, and root cause analysis of complex issues. Required Qualifications:
5+ years of experience
in
Visual C++
development on the
Windows platform
- recent or current. 1-2 years of hands-on experience
working with
Kubernetes
and
Docker containers . Experience with
KubeVirt
or equivalent virtualization platforms in cloud-native environments. Proficient in both
Windows and Linux C++ development . Demonstrated ability to
convert or port Windows-based C++ code to Linux
environments (preferred). Strong background in
unit testing
with practical experience in tools like
Google Test ,
CppUnit , or equivalent. Focused software engineering experience with a strong emphasis on C++ and cloud-native systems - not generalized across unrelated stacks. Preferred Skills:
Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and Git-based workflows. Exposure to system-level programming and performance optimization. Experience working in Agile or Scrum environments. Requal Call Notes: Overview Shift in hiring focus to
Kubernetes experts
over C++/Kubernetes hybrids. Screening process updated:
Kubernetes expert
joins initial interviews. C++ requirement now
optional ; familiarity preferred, not mandatory. Urgency:
App delivery deadline
by December 31st, 2025. Location preference:
Dallas-based
candidates. Key skills:
Kubernetes, KubeVirt, Docker, AWS
experience. Screening Issues with Kubernetes Candidates
Screening for Kubernetes roles now includes both manager and Kubernetes expert. Candidates often claim Kubernetes experience without sufficient knowledge. New screening process implemented as of today to verify actual Kubernetes skills. No current recruitment for C++ positions; focus remains on Kubernetes roles. Refining the Interview Process
Interview on Friday failed due to candidate's lack of hands-on Kubernetes experience. Initial requirement: engineers with both C++ and Kubernetes expertise. Requirement changed: now seeking one C++ engineer and one Kubernetes expert with recent hands-on experience. Kubernetes expert must have current or recent job experience, ideally 5-7 years. Open to candidates with strong DevOps and Kubernetes skills, not necessarily both C++ and Kubernetes. Role Requirements: Kubernetes vs. C++
Seeking candidate with strong Kubernetes hands-on experience, preferably based in Dallas. Team currently has two members in Dallas; location alignment preferred. Ideal profile combines C++ engineering and Kubernetes expertise, but such candidates are rare. Recent focus shifted toward DevOps and Kubernetes skills over specific programming languages. Candidate Dinesh highlighted as strong in DevOps and Kubernetes; Alex identified as primarily C++ focused. Acceptable Backgrounds and Skills
Position requires hands-on experience with Kubernetes, but know how to read C++. Hands on Kubernetes, KubeVirt, and Docker is important. Strong Kubernetes skills prioritized; C++ familiarity preferred but not expert level. Candidates with high aptitude and strong Kubernetes experience considered, even if primary background is Java or C#. Basic familiarity with C++ increases likelihood of success in the role. Project Timeline and Urgency
App delivery deadline:
December 15, 2024 . Project must start by
September 1, 2024
to avoid delays. First interview scheduled for
30 minutes . C++ development paused; focus shifted to
Kubernetes .
