- Shape and maintain the overall deployment architecture, define the reference architectures, participate in design reviews to ensure reliability, operability, and security are built into the core deployment model. 

- Support software engineers to build an offline-capable installer and a one-click upgrade/rollback orchestrator using state of the art modern cloud technologies such as immutable & distroless Docker/OCI images, Helm charts, and Kubernetes operators.

 - Deliver the air-gap debug system including diagnostics, log/metric capture, auto-redaction, and signed export artifacts so operators can resolve most issues independently. 

- Implement self-diagnostics, health checks, and recovery steps so operators can operate quickly without relying on external support.

- Produce operator runbooks, install/upgrade guides, supportability matrices, and clear reference architectures. 

- Enforce runtime integrity checks, non-root/distroless images, anti-tamper protections, and per-customer watermarking of delivered artifacts.

-A minimum of 5 years of experience in an SRE job working on a similar infrastructure, 

- Strong expertise in Kubernetes operators, Helm, and containerized deployments.

 - Proven experience building installation and upgrade frameworks for complex distributed systems. - A knack for making sophisticated systems operator-friendly, even in air-gapped settings. 

- Developed several useful tools/automation scripts in Python, 

- Participated in a 24x7 on-call rotation, 

- A solid understanding of cloud networking, load balancing, and firewall configurations, 

- A sense for innovation and implementing changes.
