About the role

We are seeking a Senior Software Engineer to join our Managed Kubernetes (Mk8s) team. You will play a crucial role in shaping the architecture, reliability, and automation of our Kubernetes-based infrastructure, which powers mission-critical workloads across our global platform.

What they're looking for

  • Have 6+ years of experience in software engineering, with a track record of owning significant technical scope within a team (e.g., driving a project from design through production, or acting as a de facto tech lead on a workstream)
  • Deep understanding of Kubernetes internals: controllers, schedulers, operators, CRDs, CSI, CNI, and the extension patterns that make Kubernetes powerful
  • Solid grasp of distributed systems fundamentals — fault tolerance, graceful degradation, and failure handling in large-scale environments
  • Experience operating the control plane and low-level pieces of large-scale Kubernetes clusters
  • Experience with observability at scale: Prometheus, Grafana, distributed tracing, and building actionable alerting systems
  • Strong programming skills in Go and Python, ability to collaborate effectively on shared codebases
