Summary

Overview

We're expanding our Kubernetes-backed containerization and orchestration platform and seeking a Software Engineer who is passionate about building secure, scalable, and automated capabilities end-to-end. You'll own features across the full development lifecycle-from design and development to deployment and operations-while enforcing strong security guardrails and enabling efficient multi-tenant workload isolation. This role is ideal for engineers who enjoy working close to the platform, automating everything, and turning complex operational requirements into elegant, repeatable solutions.

What will you do?

    • - Design & build new capabilities for our Kubernetes platform, including container orchestration workflows, deployment tooling, and operational automation.
      - Develop and maintain custom Helm charts (or equivalent Kubernetes resource management artifacts) for repeatable, compliant deployments across environments.
      - Implement and enforce Kubernetes RBAC security policies, native roles, and role bindings for least-privilege access and granular workload isolation.
      - Leverage namespaces to segment workloads and align tenancy, compliance, and operational boundaries.
      - Integrate CI/CD pipelines with Kubernetes orchestration to automate build, test, deploy, and rollback processes.
      - Instrument workloads and platform components with metrics, health checks, and standardized endpoints to improve observability and SLO adherence.
      - Collaborate cross-functionally with security, cloud, networking, and application teams to ensure platform capabilities meet mission needs.
      - Document architecture, patterns, runbooks, and guardrails to drive consistency and enable self-service.

Do you have what it takes?

  • Active TS/SCI with Polygraph required.
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or closely related field; or equivalent practical experience.
    - Full development lifecycle experience delivering capabilities on Kubernetes (design, build, test, deploy, operate).
    - Hands-on experience building and maintaining custom Kubernetes Helm charts or an equivalent resource manager (e.g., Kustomize).
    - Proven expertise with Kubernetes RBAC policy configuration and enforcement.
    - Practical use of namespaces to separate and manage workloads.
    - Experience configuring granular workload permissions using native roles and role bindings.
    - Experience building automation pipelines (CI/CD) that interface directly with Kubernetes orchestration (e.g., GitOps, progressive delivery).
