Job : Senior Kubernetes Platform Engineer (Zero-Touch GPU Cloud GitOps Automation) We are looking for a Senior Kubernetes Platform Engineer with 10+ years of infrastructure experience to design and implement the Zero-Touch Build, Upgrade, and Certification pipeline for our on-premises GPU cloud platform. This role focuses on automating the Kubernetes layer and its dependencies (e.g., GPU drivers, networking, runtime) using 100% GitOps workflows . You will work across teams to deliver a fully declarative, scalable, and reproducible infrastructure stackfrom hardware to Kubernetes and platform services. Key Responsibilities Architect and implement GitOps-driven Kubernetes cluster lifecycle automation using tools like kubeadm , ClusterAPI , Helm , and Argo CD . Develop and manage declarative infrastructure components for: GPU stack deployment (e.g., NVIDIA GPU Operator ) Container runtime configuration ( Containerd ) Networking layers ( CNI plugins like Calico, Cilium, etc.) Lead automation efforts to enable zero-touch upgrades and certification pipelines for Kubernetes clusters and associated workloads. Maintain Git-backed sources of truth for all platform configurations and integrations. Standardize deployment practices across multi-cluster GPU environments, ensuring scalability, repeatability, and compliance. Drive observability, testing, and validation as part of the continuous delivery process (e.g., cluster conformance, GPU health checks). Collaborate with infrastructure, security, and SRE teams to ensure seamless handoffs between lower layers (hardware/OS) and the Kubernetes platform.
