About the role

Key responsibilities & impact
  • Design and implement features, bug fixes, and infrastructure automation for the GCP HCP platform using Go and Kubernetes
  • Work within an agent-augmented development workflow: decompose work into well-specified tasks, guide AI agents through implementation, and rigorously review agent-generated code and tests
  • Write and maintain custom linters, structural tests, and CI gate checks that enforce architectural boundaries and prevent drift — for both human and agent contributors
  • Contribute to the team's structured documentation system (design documents, architecture decision records, AGENTS.md context files) that serves as the source of truth for AI agents and humans alike
  • Build and maintain the observability, deployment pipelines, and automation that support multi-region managed OpenShift clusters on GCP
  • Participate in peer code reviews with a focus on correctness, security, and adherence to established architectural constraints
  • Own test strategy for the features you deliver — design test plans, write unit and integration tests, and ensure end-to-end coverage across the platform's multi-region architecture
  • Troubleshoot complex issues across distributed systems spanning GKE host clusters, HyperShift control planes, and customer workloads
  • Participate in on-call rotations to support production managed services
  • Mentor peers and contribute to a culture of continuous improvement in both technical craft and agent-augmented workflows

Requirements

What you’ll need
  • 5+ years of experience developing software in a Linux environment, with strong proficiency in Go
  • Experience with the Kubernetes ecosystem, including writing and operating controllers and operators
  • Experience with at least one major public cloud platform (GCP preferred; AWS or Azure also relevant)
  • Experience with distributed version control (Git) and CI/CD systems
  • Good understanding of Linux operating systems and container runtimes
  • Demonstrated ability to review code critically and troubleshoot complex issues in distributed systems
  • Excellent written communication skills — you will write documentation and specifications that serve as executable context for AI agents, not just other humans
  • Comfort working with AI coding tools (code generation, agent-driven workflows, LLM-assisted review) as part of daily development practice

Benefits

Comp & perks
  • Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage
  • Flexible Spending Account - healthcare and dependent care
  • Health Savings Account - high deductible medical plan
  • Retirement 401(k) with employer match
  • Paid time off and holidays
