Take a look at this job opportunity and see if you are the next VILTian! (and if you know someone, don’t forget to recommend them)

We are looking for a Mid-Level Cloud-Native Platform Engineer to bridge the gap between our core software development team and our customers' self-managed cloud environments. In this "Jack of all Trades" engineering role, you will not be doing day-to-day IT support or managing customer infrastructure; instead, you will package, adapt, and optimize our high-performance monitoring platform to run seamlessly natively inside modern containerized environments like Kubernetes and Red Hat OpenShift. Your mission is to ensure our monitoring agents can deep-dive into containerized workloads to collect metrics while spinning up internal test clusters to prove the architecture works flawlessly.

What you will do:

• Package, containerize, and optimize our existing monitoring application for reliable deployment in customer-managed Kubernetes and Red Hat OpenShift clusters.
• Write cloud-native code directly within our core application codebase (using Go, Python, or Java) to adapt our monitoring tools to auto-discover and monitor containerized infrastructure, pods, and microservices.
• Build and maintain production-grade Helm charts, Kubernetes Operators, or Kustomize configurations to make customer installation as painless as possible.
• Design and maintain internal test beds (using Minikube, Kind, or managed cloud Kubernetes) to simulate complex customer cluster topologies and run automated integration tests.
• Ensure container images are optimized, lightweight, secure (low vulnerability count), and capable of running under strict security contexts, such as non-root OpenShift SCCs.

What we expect from you:

• 3+ years of experience with a "Jack of all Trades" DNA: a solid software development background combined with a successful migration into the Kubernetes ecosystem, comfortable writing code, debugging network policies, and configuring container images in the same day.
• Deep Kubernetes and containerization expertise, extending far beyond basic kubectl commands to a strong understanding of K8s networking (CNIs), storage classes, security contexts, CRDs, and container runtimes.
• High proficiency as a developer in Go, Python, or Java, with a proven track record of writing robust, production-grade backend code.
• Proven enterprise experience packaging complex software for third-party deployment using Helm or Kubernetes Operators.
• A strong troubleshooting mindset, capable of diagnosing issues when an application behaves differently on a customer's private cluster compared to a local machine.

Nice to Have:

• Hands-on experience with Red Hat OpenShift, specifically understanding its unique security constraints (Security Context Constraints - SCCs) and routing.
• Domain knowledge in monitoring, observability, and APM frameworks, including experience with Prometheus, OpenTelemetry, or eBPF.
• Active certifications in the ecosystem, such as CKA (Certified Kubernetes Administrator) or CKAD (Certified Kubernetes Application Developer).

If you’re ready to take your engineering career to the next level, we’d love to hear from you!
