A Message from Our CEO:

We are seeking a highly skilled Cloud Engineer & Infrastructure Security professional to design, build, and secure our hybrid infrastructure (cloud + on-prem). The ideal candidate will have deep experience with Kubernetes, Terraform, Helm, and a strong background in infrastructure security, DevSecOps, and on-prem deployments. This role is critical for architecting scalable, secure, and observable infrastructure supporting mission-critical applications and LLM (Large Language Model) workloads.

Your Responsibilities:

• Infrastructure & Cloud Management
  • Deploy and manage Kubernetes clusters (cloud & on-prem) using Terraform and Helm.
  • Design secure network topology (VPCs, VPNs, firewalls).
• Infrastructure Security & Zero Trust
  • Implement zero trust models, IAM, and least-privilege access.
  • Enforce security policies, micro-segmentation, and secrets management.
• DevSecOps & CI/CD Security
  • Integrate security scanning, SBOM, and policy-as-code into pipelines.
  • Automate compliance and security checks during build and deploy.
• LLM & Hybrid Deployments
  • Build and maintain infrastructure for LLM workloads (vLLM, KServe).
  • Support hybrid cloud and on-prem deployments ensuring consistency and security.
• Monitoring & Observability
  • Implement monitoring, logging, and alerting using Grafana, Azure Monitor, Prometheus.
  • Maintain dashboards, SLIs/SLOs, and performance metrics.
• Linux & Automation
  • Harden Linux systems, automate routine tasks, and support incident response.
  • Develop scripts and tools to streamline operations.
• Collaboration & Strategy
  • Partner with engineering, security, and operations teams.
  • Mentor teams on cloud best practices and emerging technologies.

What we look for:

• Strong experience with Kubernetes, including cluster provisioning, scaling, and security.
• Proficient in Terraform and Helm for infrastructure-as-code and deployment automation.
• Expertise in infrastructure security, zero trust models, and IAM best practices.
• Hands-on experience with DevSecOps: security scanning, SBOM generation, secrets management, and policy-as-code.
• Solid understanding of cloud networking: VPC design, VPN, and firewall configuration.
• Experience with hybrid or on-prem deployments alongside cloud environments.
• Skilled in Linux administration, scripting, and automation for operational efficiency.
• Familiarity with monitoring and observability tools (Azure Monitor, Grafana, Prometheus).
• Experience building and managing infrastructure for LLM or AI workloads (vLLM, KServe).

Nice - to - have:

• Cloud and security certifications (e.g., CKA/CKAD, Terraform Associate, CISSP).
• Experience with GitOps workflows (Argo CD, Flux) and CI/CD security pipelines.
• Knowledge of policy frameworks (OPA, Gatekeeper, Kyverno) and workload identity systems (SPIFFE/SPIRE).
• Familiarity with GPU/accelerator-based infrastructure for ML/LLM workloads.
• Background in SRE practices, including SLO/SLI design and incident response.
• Contributions to open-source cloud, DevSecOps, or LLM infrastructure projects.




What we offer:

• Competitive salary and performance-based bonuses.
• Fully remote, flexible work environment.
• Modern laptop and hardware provided by us.
• Specialized training in AI, automation, and digital productivity tools.
• Global exposure—collaborate with top-tier founders and fast-growing startups.
• Continuous learning and career growth opportunities in an international environment.
