Kubernetes Cluster Design and Deployment: Design deploy and manage Kubernetes clusters on baremetal infrastructure. Ensure the clusters are configured for high availability security and scalability. Infrastructure as Code (IaC) Implementation: Use Terraform to automate the provisioning and management of infrastructure resources. Develop and maintain reusable Terraform modules for deploying Kubernetes environments. Application Deployment and Management: Work closely with development teams to containerize applications and deploy them onto Kubernetes clusters. Manage Kubernetes resources such as pods services ingress controllers and volumes. Network and Security Configuration: Configure and manage network settings including VPCs subnets security groups and network policies within the Kubernetes environment. Implement Kubernetes security best practices including RBAC pod security policies and secrets management. Monitoring and Logging: Set up monitoring and logging solutions to track the health and performance of Kubernetes clusters and deployed applications. Troubleshoot and resolve issues related to Kubernetes and containerized applications. Collaboration and Support: Collaborate with crossfunctional teams including developers network engineers and security teams to ensure seamless integration and operation of Kubernetes environments. Provide ongoing support and maintenance for the Kubernetes clusters and related infrastructure. Documentation and Knowledge Sharing: Create and maintain comprehensive documentation for Kubernetes and Terraform deployments. Conduct knowledge transfer sessions and provide training to client teams as needed. Required Qualifications: Experience: 5 years of experience in IT infrastructure engineering with a focus on Kubernetes. Proven experience in designing and managing Kubernetes clusters in onpremises or baremetal environments. Strong expertise in Terraform for infrastructure automation. Technical Skills: Proficient in Kubernetes concepts and tools (e.g. kubectl Helm Kustomize). Solid understanding of Docker and containerization technologies. Experience with networking concepts and configurations in Kubernetes. Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and integrating them with Kubernetes deployments. Knowledge of security best practices for Kubernetes and infrastructure as code. Soft Skills: Excellent problemsolving and troubleshooting abilities. Strong communication and collaboration skills. Ability to work independently and as part of a team. Willingness to mentor and guide junior engineers. Preferred Qualifications: Experience with additional infrastructure as code tools such as Ansible or Chef. Familiarity with cloud platforms like Azure AWS or Google Cloud in hybrid or multicloud environments. Certifications in Kubernetes (CKA CKAD) and Terraform
