Platform Golden Path:
- Build the golden path that will allow us to add new micro-services to our stack in a matter of minutes.
- Improve existing automations (pipelines, IaC) to be able to release more often, with more confidence.
- Migrate legacy pipelines.
- Enhance the developper workstation
- build our agentic platform providing AI capabilities to our clients
Reliability SRE practice:
- Improve dashboarding and alerting using Instana / Grafana.
- Help reduce toil by automating responses to recurrent requests.
Run the platform:
Shared incident response, platform maintenance on the various components. Day-to-day support for 8+ development teams.
Must have:
- 5+ years in DevOps, platform or SRE roles, including real production ownership.
- Kubernetes in depth. Workload scheduling, resource requests and limits, probes, disruption budgets, security contexts, ingress, and the ability to debug a failing rollout.
- Helm and Kustomize. You have designed a chart that other teams depend on, and lived with the consequences. Or you have built Kustomize bases and overlays that several applications deploy from.
- CI/CD pipeline engineering at scale. GitLab CI is strongly preferred. The transferable part is having built shared, versioned pipeline abstractions used by many repositories.
- Docker image authoring: multi-stage builds, small non-root images, build caching, registries.
- Infrastructure as code. Terraform and Ansible: roles and modules you wrote and maintained.
- Automation in Python, Bash or other languages. Clean, tested, reviewable code. Part of this platform is Python / Bash scripting, and it is held to the same standard as application code.
- Observability fundamentals. Metrics, logs and traces, how to use them, how to troubleshoot an app misbehaving.
- Git and code review as a discipline. Trunk-adjacent branching, conventional commits, small reviewable changes.
Strongly desirable:
- HashiCorp Vault and secret management patterns in Kubernetes.
- Prometheus and Grafana as an author: PromQL, recording rules, dashboards as code.
- Supply-chain security: SBOM generation, CI checks.
- Kafka operations (topics, ACLs, consumer lag) and enough SQL, Oracle and MSSQL to be useful during an incident.
- Jenkins pipelines knowledge.
- Experience supporting Java / Spring Boot and Angular delivery specifically.
- Working effectively with AI coding tools on real infrastructure code, as an accelerator you keep under review.
- Experience defining and operating service level indicators (SLIs), service level objectives (SLOs) and alerting strategies.
