to write clean, maintainable, and efficient code for infrastructure automation. Skills Required
OpenShift/Kubernetes (Docker/OpenShift) Expectations: Deep expertise in deploying, managing, and troubleshooting OpenShift (Kubernetes) clusters on GCP, including OpenShift Container Platform (OCP) and Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) where relevant. Strong understanding of OpenShift-specific features (Operators, Routes, SCCs, OAuth) and Kubernetes primitives (Pods, Deployments, Services, ConfigMaps, Secrets, RBAC, CRDs). Experience with OpenShift GitOps (ArgoCD), Helm, and Kustomize for application delivery. Ability to diagnose and resolve complex issues related to networking, storage, and cluster upgrades in OpenShift. Proven ability to implement security best practices (SCCs, NetworkPolicies, OpenShift OAuth) and automate cluster operations. Docker Expectations: Proficient in building, optimizing, and securing Docker images for OpenShift and GCP workloads. Deep understanding of Dockerfile best practices, multi-stage builds, and image vulnerability scanning (using tools like Clair, Trivy, or OpenShift integrated scanning). Experience with Google Artifact Registry and OpenShift internal registries for image storage and lifecycle management. Ability to troubleshoot container runtime issues within OpenShift and GCP environments. Python Expectations: Strong Python skills for automating GCP and OpenShift operations (using GCP SDK, OpenShift Python client, or custom operators). Experience with Python packaging, virtual environments, and dependency management. Ability to write robust, maintainable, and testable code for infrastructure automation, monitoring, and custom OpenShift controllers/operators. Familiarity with integrating Python scripts with GCP APIs, OpenShift REST APIs, and CI/CD pipelines. Skills Preferred
Experience with microservices observability tools (e.g., Prometheus, Grafana). Familiarity with service mesh technologies (Istio, Linkerd). Strong problem-solving skills and a proactive approach to identifying and addressing issues. Experience Required
Engineer 3 Exp: Practical experience in 2 coding languages or advanced practice in 1 language. 6+ years in IT 4+ years in development Education Required
Bachelor's Degree Additional Information
ADDITIONAL SKILLS REQUIRED Cloud Infrastructure (GCP) Expectations : Hands-on experience provisioning and managing GCP resources (GCE, GCS, VPC, IAM, GKE, Cloud SQL, etc.) using Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, Deployment Manager, etc.). Deep understanding of GCP security (IAM, service accounts, VPC Service Controls), cost optimization, and monitoring/logging (Stackdriver/Cloud Monitoring). Ability to automate the lifecycle of GCP infrastructure and integrate with OpenShift clusters. Cloud Architecture (GCP + OpenShift) Expectations : Ability to design cloud-native, highly available, and resilient architectures on GCP using OpenShift as the application platform. Experience with hybrid and multi-cloud strategies, disaster recovery, and compliance in a GCP/OpenShift context. Strong understanding of architectural trade-offs, cost implications, and performance optimization for containerized workloads on GCP. Additional Info
