About the role
Infrastructure-focused role to design, operate, and scale Mandolin’s cloud foundation with emphasis on reliability, security, and developer productivity.
Responsibilities
- Own cloud infrastructure end-to-end: design and operate scalable, highly available environments across development, staging, and production. Establish autoscaling policies, HA networking, cost-efficient resource management, and environment parity.
- Drive GitOps and Kubernetes delivery: own the GitOps delivery pipeline using ArgoCD and Kubernetes. Manage clusters, ApplicationSets, workload deployments, and promotion workflows across environments. Ensure deployments are reliable, observable, and safely reversible.
- Embed security into the SDLC: centralize secrets management, define zero-trust IAM policies, integrate continuous vulnerability scanning into CI/CD, and own incident-response playbooks.
- Build first-class observability: deploy and maintain metrics, tracing, and log pipelines. Define actionable SLOs and alerting.
- Improve developer experience: provide runbooks, local-environment tooling, and onboarding patterns that let new engineers ship safely on day one. Reduce toil through automation and golden-path tooling.
- Write code that matters: Go for internal tooling, automate operational workflows, and solve problems that can't be solved with YAML alone.
- Collaborate across teams: review architectural changes for infrastructure and security impact. Partner with backend engineers on scalability initiatives. Document decisions clearly.
Qualifications
- 7+ years building and operating production cloud infrastructure at scale
- Deep hands-on experience with Kubernetes — cluster management, workload design, networking, autoscaling, production troubleshooting
- GitOps & ArgoCD: Experience with ApplicationSets, sync waves, multi-cluster delivery, promotion workflows
- CI/CD experience: GitHub Actions, Cloud Build, or equivalent — pipelines, caching, artifact management, security gates
- IAC: Pulumi, Terraform, or equivalent — writing infrastructure as code, not just running it
- Secrets Management: centralized stores, ESO or equivalent, automated rotation, zero inline secrets
- Security: IAM design, zero-trust principles, vulnerability scanning, dependency management
- Experience writing production-quality code in GoLang, functional programming style, not just scripts
- Cloud experience: GCP; AWS or Azure experience with strong fundamentals is a plus
