Pod & Workload Management – Deep troubleshooting of pod scheduling, init containers, sidecars, probes (liveness/readiness/startup), resource requests/limits, QoS classes, OOMKills, eviction, and CrashLoopBackOff scenarios. Tune kubelet, container runtime (containerd), and cgroup behavior.
Networking (Cluster & Infra) – Design and operate cluster networking using CNI plugins (Calico, Cilium, Azure CNI), NetworkPolicies, service meshes (Istio/Linkerd), CoreDNS, kube-proxy/IPVS, and east-west traffic flows. Own ingress controllers (NGINX, Traefik, Istio Gateway) and integrate with external/internal load balancers (Azure LB, MetalLB, F5, NSX ALB/Avi).
Storage & CSI Drivers – Implement and operate persistent storage with CSI drivers including Azure Disk/File CSI, VMware vSphere CSI, Nutanix CSI, Longhorn, and Rook/Ceph. Manage StorageClasses, VolumeSnapshots, dynamic provisioning, topology-aware scheduling, and storage migration.
Hybrid & On-Prem Platforms – Run Kubernetes on VMware vSphere (with vSphere CSI/CPI), Nutanix AHV/Karbon, and bare-metal SUSE. Coordinate with virtualization, SAN/NAS, and network teams for capacity, datastore, and fabric design.
Load Balancing & Ingress – Architect L4/L7 load balancing across cloud (Azure Load Balancer, Application Gateway, Front Door) and on-prem (F5 BIG-IP, NSX ALB, MetalLB, kube-vip). Manage TLS termination, SNI, mTLS, WAF, session affinity, and health probes.
Infrastructure as Code & GitOps – Build reusable IaC with Terraform and Helm. Implement GitOps with Argo CD or Flux for declarative cluster and application delivery.
Observability & SRE – Stand up and operate Prometheus, Grafana, Loki, Alertmanager, and OpenTelemetry. Define SLIs/SLOs, drive incident response, post-mortems, and capacity planning.
Security & Compliance – Enforce Pod Security Standards, RBAC, OPA/Gatekeeper or Kyverno policies, image signing (Cosign), secret management (Key Vault, External Secrets, SealedSecrets), and CIS benchmark hardening.
