TL;DR · Software Engineering PMTS

Software Engineering PMTS will join the FKP team to drive technical direction for designing and implementing software that manages Kubernetes clusters at massive scale. This role involves creating complex design documents, presenting architectural strategies to cross-functional audiences, and guiding the implementation of distributed systems, control planes, and APIs across thousands of clusters and various substrates. The candidate will evaluate and integrate open source technologies while mentoring engineers on their designs. Key technical requirements include expertise in Golang and Bash, along with hands-on experience with Kubernetes, Docker, AWS or GCP services, Terraform, and CI/CD tools like Jenkins, Argo, and Spinnaker. Additionally, the role requires proficiency with observability tools such as Prometheus, Grafana, Splunk, and ElasticSearch to manage a large-scale Kubernetes fleet providing platform-as-a-service for internal engineering teams.

What you'll do

  • Drive technical direction for designing and implementing software that manages Kubernetes clusters at massive scale.
  • Create complex design documents and present architectural strategies to senior technical and cross-functional audiences.
  • Design and implement distributed systems, control planes, and APIs that operate at planet scale.
  • Evaluate and integrate open source technologies into the FKP software stack while setting high technical standards.
  • Identify architectural gaps and propose solutions for managing resources across thousands of clusters and substrates.
  • Mentor other engineers as they build against your designs and technical specifications.
  • Lead multiple concurrent initiatives and set technical priorities to drive consensus among senior stakeholders.

What we're looking for

  • Deep expertise in Golang and Bash (working shell knowledge required).
  • 8+ years of experience with distributed systems, APIs, Kubernetes, Docker, and container orchestration at scale.
  • 5+ years of experience with AWS and/or GCP services.
  • Strong experience with Terraform, infrastructure-as-code practices, and CI/CD services like Jenkins, Argo, or Spinnaker.
  • Experience with observability tools such as Prometheus, Grafana, Splunk, ElasticSearch, or Argus.
  • Proven track record of architecting and operating systems at planet scale with ownership of major design decisions.
  • Proficiency in using AI tools to accelerate design, development, and operations.
  • Strong technical leadership skills to mentor engineers and influence architecture decisions across teams.
