Kubernetes/ INDIA

Key Responsibilities:

• Kubernetes Cluster Management:
• Set up, configure, and manage Kubernetes clusters on cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP) or on-premises.
• Ensure high availability, scalability, and fault tolerance of Kubernetes environments.
• Monitor and maintain the health of Kubernetes clusters, including networking, storage, and compute resources.
• Troubleshoot and resolve issues related to Kubernetes clusters and containers.
• Container Orchestration:
• Deploy, manage, and scale containerized applications using Kubernetes and Docker.
• Implement Helm charts, Kubernetes operators, and CI/CD pipelines for automating application deployment.
• Develop and maintain infrastructure-as-code scripts (e.g., using Terraform, Ansible, CloudFormation) to provision Kubernetes clusters and associated infrastructure.
• Cloud Infrastructure & Automation:
• Work closely with cloud teams to deploy Kubernetes clusters on public and private cloud environments.
• Automate repetitive tasks and implement self-healing mechanisms to ensure continuous deployment and management.
• Integrate monitoring, logging, and alerting tools (e.g., Prometheus, Grafana, ELK Stack) with Kubernetes to provide better visibility and troubleshooting.
• CI/CD Integration:
• Implement CI/CD pipelines using tools like Jenkins, GitLab CI, CircleCI, or ArgoCD to automate the delivery and deployment of containerized applications.
• Work with development and QA teams to integrate Kubernetes deployments with CI/CD workflows.
• Enhance and optimize existing pipelines for speed, scalability, and reliability.
• Security & Compliance:
• Ensure security best practices for Kubernetes clusters and containers (e.g., role-based access control (RBAC), network policies, secrets management).
• Collaborate with the security team to implement container image scanning, vulnerability assessments, and compliance checks.
• Perform regular audits and security reviews for Kubernetes environments.
• Collaboration & Documentation:
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams including development, infrastructure, and operations to understand requirements and optimize application performance.
• Maintain up-to-date documentation on Kubernetes clusters, deployment processes, and troubleshooting steps.
• Provide knowledge sharing sessions and assist in the training of junior team members.

Requirements:

• Education:
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, or a related field.
• Experience:
• 2+ years of hands-on experience with Kubernetes and Docker.
• Strong understanding of containerization technologies and orchestration patterns.
• Experience in cloud environments such as AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud Platform (GCP).
• Familiarity with DevOps tools and practices (e.g., Terraform, Ansible, Jenkins, GitLab CI).
• Technical Skills:
• Strong proficiency in Kubernetes, including cluster setup, scaling, networking, and monitoring.
• Experience with Helm, Kubernetes operators, and CI/CD pipelines.
• Proficiency with Linux/Unix systems and command-line tools.
• Familiarity with container image management and Docker registries (e.g., Docker Hub, Harbor).
• Knowledge of logging and monitoring tools like Prometheus, Grafana, ELK Stack, Fluentd.
