Job Title: Senior Devops Engineer (Full-time)
Location: Mumbai, Onsite
Experience Required: 5+ Years
Required Qualifications
● Experience:
○ 5+ years of hands-on experience as a DevOps Engineer or similar role, with
proven expertise in building and customizing Helm charts from scratch (not just
using pre-existing ones).
○ Demonstrated ability to design and whiteboard DevOps pipelines, including
CI/CD workflows for microservices applications.
○ Experience packaging and deploying applications with stateful dependencies
(e.g., databases, persistent storage) in varied environments: on-prem (air-gapped
and non-air-gapped), single-tenant cloud, multi-tenant cloud, and developer trials.
○ Proficiency in managing deployments in Kubernetes clusters, including offline
installations, upgrades via Helm, and adaptations for client restrictions (e.g., no
additional tools or VMs).
○ Track record of handling client interactions, such as asking probing questions
about infrastructure (e.g., OS versions, storage solutions, network restrictions)
and explaining technical concepts clearly.
● Technical Skills:
○ Strong knowledge of Helm syntax and functionalities (e.g., Go templating, hooks,
subcharts, dependency management).
○ Expertise in containerization with Docker, including image management
(save/load, registries like Harbor or ECR).
○ Familiarity with CI/CD tools such as Jenkins, ArgoCD, GitHub Actions, and
GitOps for automated and manual deployments.
○ Understanding of storage solutions for on-prem and cloud, including object/file
storage (e.g., MinIO, Ceph, NFS, cloud-native like S3/EBS).
○ In-depth knowledge of Kubernetes concepts: StatefulSets, PersistentVolumes,
namespaces, HPA, liveness/readiness probes, network policies, and RBAC.
○ Solid grasp of cloud networking: VPCs (definition, boundaries, virtualization via
SDN, differences from private clouds), bare metal vs. virtual machines
(advantages like resource efficiency, flexibility, and scalability).
○ Ability to work in air-gapped environments, preparing offline artifacts and
ensuring self-contained deployment
