Stay current with new tools and approaches to improve Kubernetes and container security
Support DevOps needs by participating in deployments and troubleshooting developer workloads
Participate in an on-call rotation shared across 13 engineers. Each engineer typically covers one weekday every two weeks. If your shift falls on a Friday, the on-call period extends through the weekend until Monday at 10 AM. The on-call rotation begins after 3 months of employment

Qualifications - We encourage you to apply if you think your experience may be a match, even if you do not meet all of the qualifications.

2+ years of hands-on, production-level experience with Kubernetes and containerization, including running and troubleshooting workloads in production environments is required.
Experience with on-premises k8s, a bonus.
Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and tooling, (Jenkins, GitLab CI, ArgoCD)
Basic scripting and automation skills (Python, Bash); experience with Go (Golang), a bonus.
Experience with vulnerability scanning and container security workflows (Sysdig, Trivy, or similar)
Familiarity with CNAPP and SIEM platforms (Sysdig, Rapid7, or similar), or a strong interest in developing expertise with them
Understanding of networking concepts (TCP/IP, DNS, load balancing, firewalls, and Kubernetes network policies)
Familiarity with compliance frameworks (PCI DSS, HIPAA, SOC 2, NIST, ISO 27001) and how to support evidence/reporting needs
Understanding of security fundamentals such as Secure SDLC and secure coding principles
Strong collaboration and communication skills, with the ability to translate security requirements into practical guidance for developers
