Platform Engineer

Key Responsibilities

Build & Operate Scalable Platforms —

Design and manage cloud-native, hybrid-cloud, and on-premises platform solutions, including internal developer platforms, self-service provisioning, and developer enablement practices.

Implement & Operate Kubernetes Platforms —

Deploy, administer, and continuously improve Kubernetes ecosystems across cloud and on-premises environments, including Helm deployments, upgrades, capacity planning, and troubleshooting.

Secure Platforms & Manage Identity (IAM) —

Implement Kubernetes security and governance controls (Kyverno, container scanning, policy frameworks, secrets management) and configure IAM/SSO solutions including Keycloak, Oracle Access Manager, OAuth 2.0, JWT, and Active Directory/LDAP.

Manage Messaging & Data Platforms —

Operate and optimize Apache Kafka (KRaft) and RabbitMQ, and administer enterprise data platforms including PostgreSQL (Patroni clustering), MSSQL, MySQL, and MongoDB.

Automate Delivery & Infrastructure (CI/CD, IaC) —

Design and support CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins, ArgoCD, GitLab) and provision infrastructure using Terraform, Ansible, and scripting to enable secure, efficient, DevSecOps-aligned delivery.

Drive Reliability & Observability —

Implement monitoring, logging, and alerting (Grafana, Prometheus, Manage Engine), proactively resolve incidents, conduct root cause analysis, and eliminate manual processes through automation.

Key Requirements

5–8 years of hands-on experience in Platform Engineering, DevOps, Infrastructure, Cloud Engineering, or related roles in enterprise-scale cloud-native, hybrid-cloud, and on-premises environments.

Kubernetes expertise — hands-on design, deployment, and administration using Docker, Helm, and GitOps in large-scale microservices environments.

Cloud & infrastructure — strong experience with AWS, VMware ESXi, vSphere, and enterprise infrastructure platforms.

CI/CD, DevOps & IaC — deep understanding of Platform Engineering, DevOps, GitOps, SRE, and CI/CD (Jenkins, ArgoCD, GitLab), plus proficiency in Terraform, Ansible, Chef, or equivalent.

Messaging & data platforms — experience with Apache Kafka, RabbitMQ, and enterprise data platforms (PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQL Server, MongoDB, Cassandra, Elasticsearch, Trino).

Security, IAM & automation — expertise in IAM technologies (OAuth 2.0, OIDC, SAML, JWT, Keycloak, Kerberos, SSO, Active Directory), platform security/policy-as-code, and strong automation/scripting skills (Python, Shell, Ansible, Terraform).
