Job Description

[AI-summarized by JobStash]

You will design and build Kubernetes-based infrastructure primitives and the CRE control plane that enable deterministic horizontal scaling of decentralized oracle networks. You will develop Kubernetes Operators, scaling automation, and reusable platform components, codify scaling logic, and implement safe, repeatable infrastructure expansion. You will improve operational efficiency, diagnosability, and the scalability of stateful distributed systems.

Requirements

●6–9+ years in SRE / Platform / Infrastructure Engineering
●Proven experience scaling Kubernetes in high-throughput production environments
●Deep knowledge of scheduler behavior
●Deep knowledge of StatefulSets & persistent workloads
●Deep knowledge of autoscaling strategies (HPA, VPA, KEDA, custom scaling)
●Resource management & performance tuning
●Multi-cluster and multi-region architectures
●Experience in diagnosing production failures at the cluster scale
●Strong Terraform or Crossplane experience
●GitOps workflows (ArgoCD / Flux) experience
●CI/CD reliability experience
●Automation-first mindset
●AWS production experience
●Proficiency in Go or equivalent systems language

Responsibilities

●Design infrastructure primitives for decentralized oracle networks
