• Kubernetes Networking: Design and support networking for Kubernetes clusters on GKE (primary) and AKS, including monitoring and troubleshooting workload network performance.
• Performance Analysis: Measure and troubleshoot latency and throughput across public internet paths. Engage carriers, ISPs, and cloud providers as needed to resolve issues.

• Working knowledge of BGP and IPSec/VPN sufficient to build, operate, and troubleshoot production connectivity.
• Linux network troubleshooting using tcpdump, Wireshark, ss, mtr, and iperf (or equivalents), with an understanding of how kernel network behavior (buffers, queues, offloads) affects throughput and latency.
• Terraform, Python, and Git used in day-to-day work.
• Availability for scheduled off-hours maintenance windows.
