Job Description: We're partnering with a fast-growing, cloud-native technology organization building next-generation enterprise service mesh platforms and we are looking for someone who enjoys working at the intersection of cloud-native architecture, networking, and large-scale distributed systems (This is more than a Kubernetes admin role - it's hands-on platform product engineering).

Responsibilities: Design and build modern service mesh platforms.

Work across management plane and data plane architectures.

Architect secure, highly-available distributed systems.

Build and scale multi-cluster, multi-cloud environments.

Contribute to or engage with the Istio / Envoy open-source ecosystem.

Building and enhancing enterprise-grade service mesh capabilities.

Developing features across control plane & data plane.

Improving security, observability, and networking performance.

Supporting complex enterprise Kubernetes deployments.

Collaborating with customers and engineering teams on advanced technical challenges.

Experience (Required): Deep expertise in Kubernetes.

Strong programming background (Go preferred; C++ or systems-level exposure a plus).

Strong experience with Istio, Envoy, and service mesh internals.

Networking expertise (TCP/IP, mTLS, service-to-service communication).

Experience across cloud environments (AWS / GCP / Azure).

Experience (Desired): Solid understanding of distributed systems concepts (consistency, reliability, scalability).

Education: Bachelor's or degree in or a related field or equivalent work experience.
