+ Optimize Kubernetes performance on constrained hardware and air-gapped systems.

+ Troubleshoot container runtimes, DNS resolution, and overlay networking (e.g., Calico, Flannel).

Your skills and experience

+ 5 years of experience managing Kubernetes platform components and lifecycle operations.

+ Proficiency with Helm charts and Argo CD for application and platform deployment.

+ Strong skills in Go, Bash scripting, YAML/JSON configuration, and REST API development.
