Infrastructure Engineer, Edge Compute

Overview

Infrastructure Engineer working on edge compute: deploying and operating Kubernetes clusters, networking and secure runtime environments for customer workloads across multiple cloud providers and edge locations.

What you'll do

• Deploy and operate Kubernetes clusters across multiple cloud providers and edge locations.
• Build and maintain the networking that connects and isolates edge infrastructure, including VPNs, routing, network policies, and firewalls.
• Own infrastructure automation for cluster provisioning, configuration, upgrades, and recovery.
• Manage infrastructure as code with Terraform/OpenTofu and configuration management tools such as Ansible.
• Build and operate secure runtime environments for customer workloads, including containers, microVMs, and ephemeral sandboxed workloads.
• Improve cluster reliability, observability, and capacity as the platform grows across providers and regions.
• Build out Prometheus metrics and alerting for infrastructure and platform observability.
• Harden workload and network isolation, and help define security boundaries for running untrusted customer code.
• Participate in on-call and troubleshoot problems across Linux, containers, Kubernetes, networking, and cloud infrastructure.

What you'll need

• 1–3+ years of hands-on Kubernetes experience in production, including cluster-level operations and troubleshooting.
• Strong Linux and container fundamentals.
• Strong networking fundamentals, including TCP/IP, DNS, VPNs, firewalls, NAT, and routing.
• Infrastructure-as-code and automation experience with tools such as Terraform/OpenTofu and Ansible.
• Experience working with at least one major cloud provider and an understanding of cloud networking, compute, and storage.
• Experience diagnosing production issues across multiple layers of the infrastructure stack.
• Security mindset: you think about attack surfaces, tenant isolation, and running untrusted workloads safely.

Nice to have

• Experience operating Kubernetes across multiple cloud providers or regions.
• Experience with Kubernetes networking and CNI implementations such as Calico.
• Firecracker, Kata Containers, or other microVM/container isolation technologies.
• Container runtime experience, including containerd, cgroups, namespaces, or seccomp.
• Knative or other serverless infrastructure.
• Experience with ephemeral compute, sandboxing, CI runners, build systems, or other platforms that execute user-provided code.
• BGP, WireGuard, or software-defined networking experience.
• Rancher/RKE2 specifically.
• Experience with Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI).
• Go or Python experience for infrastructure tooling and automation.
