We are building the Kubernetes-based platform on which Microservice-based integration apps will be deployed. The AWS/Azure infrastructure is provisioned and configured through Terraform and Ansible.

We are looking for candidates who are comfortable and experienced building production-grade Kubernetes platforms in the cloud (AWS/Azure preferred) and have good experience with Linux, Bash, Python, Ansible, Prometheus and Elasticstack.
