The applicant must have extensive engineering experience and deep Kubernetes and Azure expertise, including designing and leading implementation of container-platform requirements and architecture on Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS), as well as standing up and operating Agentic Runtime for Kubernetes (ARK) to host AI-agent workloads. The Senior Kubernetes Engineer will serve as a technical escalation point, drive root cause analysis on complex incidents, and provide mentorship and knowledge sharing across engineering teams. A passion for performance, strong desire for quality conformance, and attention to detail are prerequisites for this position.

Location: Remote

Work Hours: This position requires working online from 8:00 AM Eastern to 5:00 PM Eastern

Day to Day Roles and Responsibilities:

Incident Response and Troubleshooting

Serve as the Tier 3 escalation point for complex incidents and outages across the Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) and ARK agentic-runtime environment
Lead investigation and resolution of issues across the Kubernetes stack including AKS clusters, the control plane, CNI networking, ingress, CSI storage, and workload scheduling, as well as the ARK control plane and its Custom Resources (Agents, Models, Teams, Tools, and Queries)
Drive root cause analysis on high-severity incidents and own implementation of solutions to prevent recurrence
Manage high-priority incident communications with stakeholders, leadership, and affected tenants

Platform Monitoring and Optimization

Define and enforce observability standards across tenant clusters using Azure Monitor, Managed Prometheus, Container Insights, Azure Log Analytics, and OpenTelemetry, including the agent-level telemetry emitted by ARK
Lead proactive identification and mitigation of cluster, node-pool, and workload risks before they impact tenants
Analyze performance, cost, and capacity trends and architect optimizations to improve stability, efficiency, and security at scale

Kubernetes and ARK Platform Engineering

Lead management and maintenance of Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) clusters and the ARK agentic runtime across a 70+ tenant environment
Deploy, upgrade, and operate ARK on Kubernetes - managing its CRDs, controllers, and model and tool integrations (including MCP servers) to host AI agents declaratively and provider-agnostically
Ensure all tenant resources are secure, FedRAMP compliant, and continuously optimized, enforcing Kubernetes RBAC, network policy, and Azure workload identity
Partner with the Architecture team to design solutions aligned with the Azure Well-Architected Framework and Kubernetes best practices, and own and enforce Change Management procedures across the team

Collaboration, Mentorship, and Knowledge Sharing

Serve as technical lead for incident intake, triage prioritization, and team workload management
Mentor and train Tier 2 engineers on Kubernetes and agentic-runtime operations; lead knowledge transfer sessions to build team capability
Drive improvements in team metrics and service delivery in coordination with the Service Delivery Manager and Product Owner
Maintain comprehensive documentation of incident response procedures, architecture decisions, and lessons learned

Qualifications

Basic Qualifications:

Bachelors degree and 8 years of experience or a Masters degree and 6 years of experience or an Associates degree and 10 year of experience or a High School diploma/equivalent and 12 years of experience.
Must be a U.S. Citizen with the ability to obtain and maintain a DHS Public Trust clearance.
Engineering and systems analysis experience, with a deep hands-on focus on Kubernetes in production
Extensive hands-on expertise operating Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) and the broader Kubernetes stack - control plane, CNI networking, ingress, CSI storage, RBAC, Helm, and workload scheduling
Hands-on experience deploying and operating Agentic Runtime for Kubernetes (ARK) or comparable Kubernetes-native agent or operator platforms built on the CRD-plus-controller pattern (e.g., Argo), including ARK Custom Resources (Agents, Models, Teams, Tools, and Queries) and MCP/A2A integration
Proven experience leading incident management and root cause analysis in large-scale, multi-tenant government environments, with deep knowledge of FedRAMP compliance and Kubernetes and Azure security best practices
Strong leadership, communication, and technical documentation skills; ability to communicate effectively with both technical teams and senior stakeholders

Preferred Qualifications:

Certified Kubernetes Administrator (CKA) or Certified Kubernetes Application Developer (CKAD), plus Microsoft Azure Administrator Associate (AZ-104) or Microsoft Azure Solutions Architect Expert (AZ-305)
Proficiency with GitOps and Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, Bicep, Helm, and Argo CD or Flux) and CI/CD pipelines (Azure DevOps or GitHub Actions)
Advanced scripting with Python, PowerShell, or Go for automation and remediation, including use of the ARK Python SDK (ark-sdk)
Experience integrating LLM providers (Azure OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, or local models) behind an agentic runtime

Target Salary Range $104,000 - $166,000. This represents the typical salary range for this position.
