Infrastructure Engineer
Overview
We are seeking a high-caliber Infrastructure Engineer to join our Security & DevSecOps squad. In this role, you will translate architectural visions into robust, executable designs for on-premises OpenShift clusters and underlying hardware abstractions. We are looking for a systems expert who can work independently to manage the complexity of bare-metal OpenShift deployments and mission-critical storage.
Our Core Infrastructure Stack
OpenShift Platform & Virtualization
OpenShift Container Platform (OCP) administration on bare-metal/on-prem environments
·OpenShift Virtualization for managing VM-based workloads alongside containers
·RHEL (Red Hat Enterprise Linux) advanced system administration and performance tuning
Networking & Storage
· OpenShift Networking (Software Defined Networking / OVN-Kubernetes)
· OpenShift Data Foundation (ODF) for persistent, software-defined storage
· Load balancing, ingress controllers, and DNS management within a restricted network
Security & Observability
· Cluster Security (Security Context Constraints (SCC), RBAC, Network Policies)
· Monitoring & Alerting (Prometheus, Grafana, and Alertmanager)
· Disaster Recovery (DR) and high-availability (HA) planning for stateful workloads
Knowledge of Infrastructure as Code (Ansible/OpenTofu) for cluster day-2 operations.
Key Responsibilities
Convert high-level blueprints into detailed cluster specs, including IP address management (IPAM), storage topology, and VLAN tagging for bare-metal OCP.
Bare-Metal Administration: Independently lead the installation, scaling, and lifecycle management of OpenShift on physical hardware, including firmware updates and node provisioning.
Storage Orchestration: Architect and manage OpenShift Data Foundation (ODF), ensuring persistent storage is highly available and performant for simulation databases.
Network Engineering: Design and troubleshoot complex OVN-Kubernetes network patterns, ensuring secure and low-latency communication between simulation services.
OpenShift Virtualization: Lead the migration and management of legacy VM workloads into OpenShift, providing a unified control plane for the digital twin ecosystem.
Cluster Security Hardening: Implement and enfThe candidate is not feeling well. This interview will be rescheduled.orce strict SCC and RBAC policies, ensuring the platform complies with global security benchmarks and the squad's DevSecOps standards.
Monitoring & DR: Establish comprehensive monitoring with Prometheus/Grafana and independently design and test Disaster Recovery scenarios to ensure zero-data-loss targets.
Autonomous Troubleshooting: Act as the final escalation point for cluster-level performance issues, networking bottlenecks, or storage failures, resolving them without external guidance.
Preferred Qualifications
·6 to 8 years of experience in Infrastructure Engineering or Systems Administration.
Expert-level mastery of Red Hat OpenShift (OCP); Red Hat Certified Specialist in OpenShift Administration/Automation is highly preferred.
Deep experience in Bare-Metal deployments and RHEL administration.
Hands-on proficiency with OpenShift Data Foundation (ODF) and OpenShift Virtualization.
Strong understanding of Kubernetes Networking (SDN/OVN) and security constructs (Network Policies).
Demonstrated ability to work independently on complex hardware-to-software integration projects.
Highly Desirable
Experience supporting high-compute Digital Twin or Simulation environments.
Experience with backup solutions for OpenShift (Velero or OADP).
Experience in managing on-premises infrastructure for global product engineering hubs.
Exposure to industrial domains such as Manufacturing, Logistics, or Transportation is a plus.
Exposure to CI/CD and platform automation tools such as GitHub Actions, Jenkins, or GitOps practices to better align with DevSecOps operating models.
Hybrid-cloud exposure (AWS, Azure, or GCP) as a preferred qualification
