About the Role
The Role Alkira is transforming networking through its Network Infrastructure as a Service (NIaaS) platform, enabling enterprises to build and operate global cloud networks with simplicity, scale, and agility. We are seeking a Senior Platform Infrastructure Software Engineer to own the foundational layer every other engineering team at Alkira depends on, including Platform Services. Platform Infrastructure does not own customer-facing features. We build the primitives other engineering teams need in order to work at all: the global Kubernetes cluster footprint, the internal cluster running our CI/CD runners and build platforms, the shared infrastructure teams consume (databases, object storage, container registries), and the lifecycle of the shared services everything else is built on. We also build the Terraform modules other teams use to ship their own infrastructure quickly and safely. Our customers are engineers, and the output is code, Terraform configuration/modules, Go and Python tooling, cluster and service automation. You will own complex projects, drive architectural decisions, and set the standards other engineers work within. Responsibilities Own the global Kubernetes cluster footprint across regions and cloud providers: provisioning, upgrades, multi-tenancy, resource and network policy, and failure isolation. Own the internal cluster running CI/CD runners and build platforms: capacity, isolation, scaling, and the build performance every team feels daily. Own the shared infrastructure other teams consume - managed databases, object storage buckets, container registries, and build platforms including provisioning paths, access model, and cost. Own the full lifecycle of shared platform services such as internal PKI, vaults, Kubernetes operators. Own disaster recovery for the platform: backup and restore, replication and failover design, documented RTO and RPO targets, and regular DR exercises that prove recovery works. Design and pu
