New York, NY

Onsite

Senior Level

$160K/yr - $240K/yr

Financial Services

Responsibilities

Architect and build scalable, reliable solutions for managing configuration data across environments, clusters, hosts and systems

Drive automation of versioning, validation, reconciliation and drift-detection: enabling configuration data to represent intent, and continuous processes to ensure live state matches that intent

Work closely with users and stakeholders to understand their configuration and operational needs, then translate into declarative models, APIs, abstractions and workflow tooling

Lead the transition from traditional 'configuration as code / infrastructure as code (IaC)' workflows to a configuration-data centric model where configuration is versioned, audited, treated as data, and reconciled continuously

Ensure security and governance, especially around secrets, sensitive configuration, and policy-compliance, as part of our configuration data model

Iterate on tooling, developer experience, operational visibility, and platform features that help teams treat configuration as first-class data rather than ad-hoc scripts or templates

Qualification

KubernetesGo (Golang)CI/CD pipelinesCloud-native architecturesConfiguration managementInfrastructure-as-code toolsAutomation toolingDistributed systemsSoft skills

Required

Strong experience with Kubernetes: you understand its resource model, API-driven reconciliation, and declarative configuration workflows

Solid programming skills in Go (Golang) or equivalent, with readiness to build controllers, automation tooling or platform features

Experience building CI/CD pipelines or delivery tooling that support declarative workflows, versioning, audit-ability and continuous reconciliation

Good grasp of cloud-native architectures, containerised applications, distributed systems and automation at scale

Preferred

Experience building configuration management solutions or platforms that treat configuration as data (rather than purely as code or scripts)

Experience building Kubernetes controllers/operators (CRDs, reconciliation loops, custom resource management)

Familiarity with the philosophical shift from IaC to CaD: treating configuration as structured data (with versioning, schema, contract, audit) rather than only templates

Experience with infrastructure-as-code tools (Terraform, Ansible), even if just to understand their limitations, so you can help guide the shift toward a data-centric paradigm
