  • Develop testing and validation frameworks to ensure deployment tooling is deterministic, complete, reliable, and well-tested.
  • Integrate existing operators, Helm charts, and Kubernetes Custom Resource Definitions (CRDs) into the deployment generator without modifying production infrastructure.
  • Lead the migration of the monitoring stack.
  • Own and maintain the bare-metal provisioning pipeline.

  • Familiarity with container image management.
  • Experience with Infrastructure-as-Code tools such as Pulumi or Terraform, including an understanding of state-management tradeoffs.
  • Understanding of Linux systems and administration.
  • Experience developing deployment tooling for air-gapped or disconnected environments where dependencies must be pre-staged.
  • Familiarity with GPU infrastructure, including NVIDIA drivers, CUDA, NCCL, and InfiniBand/RoCE networking.
  • Experience with PXE boot, cloud-init, squashfs, or other bare-metal provisioning technologies.
  • Willingness to work extended hours and weekends when required.
  • Willingness to travel to government sites, with approximately 20% travel potentially required.
