Kubernetes & OpenShift Management: Design, deploy, and manage highly available Kubernetes clusters (specifically RedHat OpenShift Container Platform) exclusively in on-premises data center environments.
RedHat Infrastructure: Administer, configure, and troubleshoot RedHat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) servers, ensuring optimal performance, security patching, and compliance on local hardware.
CI/CD Pipeline Automation: Architect and maintain robust CI/CD pipelines (using tools like Jenkins, GitLab CI, or ArgoCD) to automate the build, test, and deployment of microservices without relying on managed cloud services.
Infrastructure as Code (IaC) & Configuration: Provision and manage localized infrastructure using Terraform and automate configuration management across all bare-metal servers and VMs using RedHat Ansible.
Monitoring & Reliability: Implement comprehensive monitoring, logging, and alerting solutions (e.g., Prometheus, Grafana,) to proactively identify and resolve performance bottlenecks or data center outages.
Security & Compliance: Ensure container and infrastructure security best practices are implemented, including RBAC, network policies, and vulnerability scanning, adhering to strict internal physical and network security standards.
