Job Description

We are looking for an accomplished Cloud Native Architect with over 12 years of experience leading cloud modernization, and DevSecOps transformation. The candidate must have deep expertise in Kubernetes architecture, multi-cloud deployments, and cloud-native security.

Key Responsibilities

• Designing experience in observable cloud-native systems using modern Kubernetes-based patterns across AWS, Azure, and GCP.

• Lead the design and implementation of cloud-native platforms leveraging Kubernetes (EKS, AKS, GKE) with GitOps automation, policy enforcement, and microservices architectures.

• Architect and deploy eBPF-based networking and observability using Cilium for enhanced performance, traffic visibility, and runtime security.

• Implement zero-trust security architectures with SPIFFE/SPIRE for workload identity and secure service-to-service authentication.

• Build and maintain control plane-based IaC platforms using Crossplane to provision cloud infrastructure declaratively through Kubernetes.

• Design and support edge computing solutions using KubeEdge, enabling low-latency and disconnected workloads for telecom, manufacturing, and IoT use cases.

• Drive platform reliability by integrating service mesh (Istio/Linkerd), distributed tracing, and auto-scaling across multi-cluster environments.

• Collaborate with development, security, and operations teams to refactor legacy systems into containerized, cloud-native solutions.

• Standardize infrastructure and application governance using OPA, Vault, and observability tools (Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry).

Must have

• Hands-on deployment and tuning of Cilium for Kubernetes networking and security policies.

• Advanced proficiency in Crossplane for Kubernetes-native infrastructure orchestration.

• Familiarity with KubeEdge for distributed edge computing or disconnected environments.

• Deep understanding of platform SRE,service mesh, and cloud cost optimization.
