Opticca Consulting is seeking a highly experienced Senior OpenShift Engineer to design, deploy, secure, operate, and continuously improve enterprise Red Hat OpenShift environments.
The role requires a hands-on engineer who can move comfortably between platform architecture, installation, infrastructure integration, automation, day-2 operations, and complex production troubleshooting.
The successful candidate will work closely with application, security, networking, storage, and DevOps teams to deliver resilient container platforms in on-premises, hybrid-cloud, and public-cloud environments.
You can expect to
- Design and implement production-grade OpenShift Container Platform environments across bare metal, virtualized infrastructure, and supported cloud platforms.
- Lead or support cluster installation, expansion, configuration, upgrades, patching, lifecycle management, and disaster-recovery readiness.
- Engineer highly available control-plane, infrastructure, ingress, compute, and storage-node topologies aligned with workload and failure-domain requirements.
- Integrate OpenShift with enterprise networking, DNS, load balancers, firewalls, proxies, registries, identity providers, PKI, secrets-management, and storage platforms.
- Configure and troubleshoot cluster networking, routes, ingress controllers, network policies, service connectivity, certificates, and east-west/north-south traffic flows.
- Implement platform security controls, including RBAC, Security Context Constraints, compliance profiles, image governance, vulnerability management, audit logging, and cluster hardening.
- Build repeatable platform deployment and operational workflows using Ansible, GitOps, Terraform, Helm, operators, and CI/CD pipelines.
- Establish monitoring, logging, alerting, capacity management, backup, recovery, and operational runbooks using enterprise observability tooling.
- Diagnose complex incidents involving etcd, operators, nodes, containers, networking, storage, performance, scheduling, and platform dependencies.
- Produce architecture documents, implementation plans, configuration standards, as-built documentation, and knowledge-transfer materials; mentor client and internal teams.
