About the role

Manage and scale large-scale Kubernetes environments while building reusable infrastructure components. Integrate AI-driven tools into the ecosystem to accelerate team workflows and operational efficiency.

What they look for

Kubernetes AWS Terraform Go Python Prometheus Grafana Infrastructure-as-Code Karpenter Linux EKS Networking Autoscaling AI-assisted development Observability

Requirements

Requires at least 2 years of experience in infrastructure management, production Kubernetes (EKS), and cloud platforms like AWS. Proficiency in Infrastructure-as-Code and internal tooling development using Go or Python is essential.

Full description

Job Description

  • Master the Cluster: Manage the lifecycle of our large-scale Kubernetes environments, without disrupting the thousands of services running on it.
  • Build the Platform: Own and evolve the cluster building blocks — Kubernetes Architecture, Karpenter configurations, addons, networking, autoscaling. Where it makes sense, platformize them so other infra teams can consume them cleanly
  • Pioneer AI-Driven Ops: Lead the charge in integrating AI into our ecosystem—building LLM-powered tools that accelerate investigation, planning, and coding for the whole team.
  • Full-Stack Ownership:  You’ll take ambiguous tasks and transform them into high-quality outcomes, owning every decision along the way.

Qualifications

  • +2 years in managing infrastructure, operating production systems at large scale
  •  2+ years running production Kubernetes — EKS preferred with a strong understanding of core control-plane and cluster components, with hands-on experience debugging, upgrading, and tuning autoscaling and cluster networking
  • 2+ years with a major cloud provider (AWS preferred) — solid grasp of core compute, networking, and IAM.
  • 2+ years with Infrastructure-as-Code, writing and maintaining reusable modules (Terraform, Pulumi, Crossplane, etc.)
  • Familiarity with observability at scale — Prometheus, Grafana, alert design
  • Experience building internal tooling in Go or Python
  • Hands-on experience with AI-assisted development tools and agents (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor) for knowledge gathering, debugging, coding, planning, and design — with the ability to integrate these into concrete workflows that demonstrably accelerate your work.

Advantage:

  • Cluster autoscaling in production
  • Cost / capacity optimization at fleet scale — Karpenter consolidation, bin-packing, spot strategy
  • Linux internals and node-level debugging — when a Kubernetes problem turns into a Linux problem, you can take it from there
  • Track record of leading projects end-to-end: scoping, execution and delivery.

Additional Information

KubeOps operates Wix's production Kubernetes platform at scale: a multi-DC EKS fleet with clusters running up to ~50,000 pods and ~2,000 nodes, hosting thousands of services across the company. We own the platform end-to-end — reliability, scale, upgrades, autoscaling and networking.
