- Lead and execute migration of existing workloads from on-premise and Azure environments to OpenShift
- Ensure smooth onboarding for multiple AI-focused client tenants with isolated environments
- Support DevOps team with advanced Linux/OpenShift troubleshooting
- Implement and enforce RBAC, tenant isolation, resource quotas, and compliance controls
- Optimize performance for AI-heavy workloads running on GPU-enabled infrastructure
- Own operational stability, platform upgrades, and monitoring
Required Skills & Experience
- 5+ years of deep hands-on experience with Red Hat OpenShift and Kubernetes
- Proven experience designing, building, and managing bare metal OpenShift clusters
- Solid understanding of Linux internals, container runtimes, networking, and troubleshooting
- Experience with application migration from both on-premise and Azure environments into OpenShift
- Strong experience with multi-tenancy architecture, including workload isolation and security
- Familiarity with storage (CSI), networking (CNI), and service mesh implementations
- Proficiency in monitoring and observability tools (e.g., Prometheus, Grafana, ELK)
- Experience with Infrastructure as Code (Ansible, Terraform) and CI/CD automation
- Strong documentation and communication skills
Certifications (Required)
- Red Hat Certified Specialist in OpenShift Administration
- Red Hat Certified Engineer (RHCE) or equivalent Linux certification
Nice to Have
- Familiarity with AI/ML compute environments (e.g., GPU workloads, NVIDIA operators)
- Experience with hybrid cloud or edge computing models
- Exposure to enterprise-grade security, compliance, and policy enforcement
