Job Description
Senior SecDevOps / SRE Kubernetes & Cloud Platform Engineer
Infrastructure, Cloud & Reliability Engineering
Experience: 48 years
Employment Type: Full-time
Work Mode: Work From Office (WFO) only 9:30 AM to 6:30 PM, Monday to Friday
Location: Client location, Sector 62, Noida
Reports To: Engineering Lead
Role Overview
We are looking for a hands-on Senior SecDevOps / Site Reliability Engineer to run our container platforms across on-premises data centers and Google Cloud Platform (GCP). The role has two core focus areas: managing our on-prem Kubernetes on the DC and DR sites to keep applications up and running, and setting up and managing our workloads on GCP. You will build and maintain CI/CD pipelines on Jenkins and be comfortable at the command line, debugging issues, and driving root-cause analysis under pressure.
Primary Focus Areas
On-Prem Kubernetes (DC & DR): Manage the on-premises Kubernetes running on the DC and DR sites to keep applications highly available. This covers cluster, pod, and namespace management, ArgoCD, Helm charts, debugging, and root-cause analysis (RCA) to maintain uptime.
GCP Platform: Set up, configure, and manage our workloads and Kubernetes (GKE) on GCP, including provisioning, upgrades, scaling, networking, and security.
Key Responsibilities
On-Prem K8s Operations: Operate and maintain on-prem Kubernetes clusters (cluster, nodes, pods, namespaces) across DC and DR to ensure application uptime.
GitOps & Deployments: Manage deployments using ArgoCD (GitOps) and Helm charts; troubleshoot workloads, debug incidents, and perform RCA.
GCP: Provision and manage services and GKE clusters on GCP Compute Engine, VPC networking, IAM, Cloud Storage, load balancing with cost and security in mind.
CI/CD Jenkins: Design, build, and maintain Jenkins pipelines (declarative/scripted) for build, test, containerization, and automated deployments across environments.
¢ Automation & CLI: Manage clusters through command-line tooling (kubectl, helm, gcloud, Linux shell); automate repetitive operational tasks.
¢ Observability & Reliability: Implement monitoring, logging, and alerting (e.g., Prometheus, Grafana, SigNoz, ELK/Cloud Logging); participate in on-call, incident response, and root-cause analysis.
¢ Security & Compliance: Enforce security best practices across clusters and pipelines secrets management, RBAC, image scanning, and patching.
¢ Documentation & Mentoring: Maintain clear runbooks and architecture diagrams; guide and mentor junior team members.
Required Skills & Experience
¢ 48 years of hands-on SecDevOps / DevOps / SRE / infrastructure experience in production environments.
¢ Strong Kubernetes administration experience in on-premises environments (kubeadm, bare-metal, or on-prem distributions) as well as on GCP / GKE clusters, pods, namespaces, upgrades, and scaling.
¢ Hands-on experience with ArgoCD, Helm charts, workload debugging, and root-cause analysis (RCA).
¢ Solid working knowledge of GCP core services (GKE, Compute Engine, VPC, IAM, Cloud Storage, Cloud Monitoring/Logging).
¢ Proven experience building and maintaining CI/CD pipelines with Jenkins.
¢ Strong Linux administration and command-line proficiency; comfortable with kubectl, helm, gcloud, and shell scripting.
¢ Experience with containerization (Docker) and container registries.
¢ Familiarity with monitoring/logging stacks (Prometheus, Grafana, SigNoz) and incident-management practices.
¢ Fast learner and self-driven smart enough to pick up new tooling quickly, own tasks end to end, and guide and mentor junior team members.
Good to Have
¢ Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform, Ansible) and GitOps (ArgoCD / Flux).
¢ Scripting/automation in Python, Bash, or Go.
¢ Service mesh (Istio/Linkerd), Helm chart authoring, and ingress controllers.
¢ Networking, firewalls, and load balancers in hybrid (on-prem + cloud) setups.
¢ Certifications (good to have): CKA / CKAD / CKS, Google Associate or Professional Cloud Engineer, RHCSA/RHCE.
Education
Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field or equivalent practical experience.
What We Offer
¢ Ownership of a critical hybrid-cloud Kubernetes platform across on-prem and GCP.
¢ A collaborative engineering culture with room to automate and improve.
¢ Competitive compensation, benefits, and continuous learning support.

To apply, share your resume along with a brief note on your Kubernetes (on-prem & GCP) experience.
