Jacksonville, United States | Posted on 09/04/2025
Sr. Platform Engineer with Nutanix Migrations
Location:
Remote
Duration:
12 Months
Position Overview:
We are seeking a highly skilled Platform Engineer to support and lead our migration from Tanzu Kubernetes Grid Integrated Edition (TKGI) to Nutanix Kubernetes Platform (NKP).
The ideal candidate will have 12-15+ years deep experience with Nutanix tools and CNCF technologies, and be proficient in installing, configuring, and operationalizing components across the Kubernetes ecosystem.
This role will play a critical part in modernizing our infrastructure by designing and implementing scalable, secure, and observable Kubernetes platforms using Nutanix solutions.
Key Responsibilities:
- Lead the migration of Kubernetes workloads from TKGI to NKP.
- Install, configure, and operationalize components of the Nutanix Kubernetes Platform.
- Deploy and manage open-source CNCF components including:
- MetalLB for load balancing,
- Calico and/or Cilium for CNI and network policies,
- Dex for authentication,
- Kubecost for resource usage and cost monitoring.
- Integrate Nutanix platform features with Kubernetes, including CSI and CNI plugins.
- Collaborate with infrastructure and application teams to ensure platform stability, security, and scalability.
- Automate platform management using Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) tools such as Terraform, Ansible, and scripting languages like Python or Power Shell.
- Implement policy-as-code solutions (e.g., OPA/Gatekeeper, Kyverno).
- Ensure observability and performance tuning using Prometheus, Grafana, and integrated logging stacks.
- Document architecture, configurations, processes, and SOPs to support platform maintainability and scalability. Required
Skills and Experience: - Proven hands-on experience with Nutanix Kubernetes Platform (NKP) and core Nutanix tools (AHV, Prism Central, etc.).
- Experience migrating or deploying Kubernetes platforms in enterprise environments.
- Deep knowledge of CNCF tools, especially:
- MetalLB, Calico, Cilium, Dex, and Kubecost.
- Proficient in container orchestration, networking, and Kubernetes security best practices.
- Strong scripting and automation experience with tools like Terraform, Ansible, Python, or Power Shell.
- Familiarity with observability tools (e.g., Prometheus, Grafana, ELK stack).
- Comfortable working in a Dev Ops environment with Git Ops methodologies.
Preferred Qualifications: - Previous experience migrating workloads from TKGI (Tanzu Kubernetes Grid Integrated Edition).
- Experience with Nutanix CSI and CNI integration in Kubernetes clusters.
- Familiarity with Git Ops tools like Argo CD or Flux.
- Understanding of enterprise authentication systems integrated via OIDC (e.g., Dex + LDAP/Okta).
- Experience with service mesh technologies (e.g., Istio, Linkerd) is a plus.
