Description & Requirements
Who we are:
We are building a platform to declaratively manage system configurations across hosts, clusters and applications, through a unified, scalable layer. Our mission: make configuration data-first, treat it as the source of truth, and enable continuous reconciliation of declared intent with actual system state. As described in the CaD (configuration as data) paradigm, the desired configuration is expressed as data, independent of the specific code that acts on it.
This is a new initiative; a fresh phase where there's broad scope for innovation, experimentation and shaping the direction of how our organization manages configurations and system state. You'll have the chance to drive the architecture, tooling and best-practices for configuration as data.
How we give back:
This team will make extensive use of Open Source Software. As part of that, we make a commitment to upstreaming features we'll be developing within Kubernetes and its ecosystem. Whether pushing bug-fixes upstream, developing new features, giving presentations at conferences/meetups or collaborating with industry leaders, open source will be at the heart of this new team. It's not just something we do in our free time - it is how we work.
We'll trust you to:
You'll need to have:
We'd love to see:
Salary Range = 00 USD Annually + Benefits + Bonus
The referenced salary range is based on the Company's good faith belief at the time of posting. Actual compensation may vary based on factors such as geographic location, work experience, market conditions, education/training and skill level.
We offer one of the most comprehensive and generous benefits plans available and offer a range of total rewards that may include merit increases, incentive compensation (exempt roles only), paid holidays, paid time off, medical, dental, vision, short and long term disability benefits, 401(k) +match, life insurance, and various wellness programs, among others. The Company does not provide benefits directly to contingent workers/contractors and interns.

Whether pushing bug-fixes upstream, developing new features, giving presentations at conferences/meetups or collaborating with industry leaders, open source will be at the heart of this new team. It's not just something we do in our free time - it is how we work.
We'll trust you to:
- Architect and build scalable, reliable solutions for managing configuration data across environments, clusters, hosts and systems.
- Drive automation of versioning, validation, reconciliation and drift-detection: enabling configuration data to represent intent, and continuous processes to ensure live state matches that intent.
- Work closely with users and stakeholders to understand their configuration and operational needs, then translate into declarative models, APIs, abstractions and workflow tooling.
- Lead the transition from traditional "configuration as code / infrastructure as code (IaC)" workflows to a configuration-data centric model where configuration is versioned, audited, treated as data, and reconciled continuously.
- Ensure security and governance, especially around secrets, sensitive configuration, and policy-compliance, as part of our configuration data model.
- Iterate on tooling, developer experience, operational visibility, and platform features that help teams treat configuration as first-class data rather than ad-hoc scripts or templates.
You'll need to have:
- Strong experience with Kubernetes: you understand its resource model, API-driven reconciliation, and declarative configuration workflows.
- Solid programming skills in Go (Golang) or equivalent, with readiness to build controllers, automation tooling or platform features.
- Experience building CI/CD pipelines or delivery tooling that support declarative workflows, versioning, audit-ability and continuous reconciliation.
- Good grasp of cloud-native architectures, containerised applications, distributed systems and automation at scale.
We'd love to see:
- Experience building configuration management solutions or platforms that treat configuration as data (rather than purely as code or scripts).
- Experience building Kubernetes controllers/operators (CRDs, reconciliation loops, custom resource management).
- Familiarity with the philosophical shift from IaC to CaD: treating configuration as structured data (with versioning, schema, contract, audit) rather than only templates.
- Experience with infrastructure-as-code tools (Terraform, Ansible), even if just to understand their limitations, so you can help guide the shift toward a data-centric paradigm.
