Ruolo

Cerchiamo una/un Senior Cloud Platform Engineer – Bare Metal & Platform Security per rafforzare il nostro team di Platform Engineering.

Lavorerai su infrastrutture bare metal, ambienti ibridi e data center enterprise, portando un approccio Security-by-Design end-to-end: dalla supply chain del software all’identity, dalle policy di compliance al runtime. Impatto diretto, clienti esigenti, nessuna scorciatoia.

Il tuo impatto quotidiano:

· Progettare e gestire infrastrutture bare metal in ambienti on-premise, edge e ibridi: provisioning, networking, storage e lifecycle dei nodi fisici

· Costruire e mantenere piattaforme Kubernetes su bare metal sicure by design: supply chain, policy enforcement, identity e zero trust

· Essere il punto di riferimento tecnico per clienti enterprise su temi di hardening, compliance e sicurezza della piattaforma in ambienti regolamentati

· Guidare attività progettuali, fare mentoring su temi di infrastruttura e sicurezza, e coordinare team tecnici cross-funzionali
