About the Role

  • Build and maintain WireGuard VPN tunnels connecting Telnyx to isolated edge clusters
  • Own Ansible automation for cluster provisioning and configuration
  • Manage infrastructure-as-code with Terraform/OpenTofu (DigitalOcean, Zenlayer, bare metal)
  • Build out Prometheus metrics pipelines for billing and observability
  • Harden security: network policies, firewall rules, air-gapping compliance

What You Bring

  • 3+ years hands-on Kubernetes in production
  • Strong networking fundamentals (VPNs, firewalls, NAT, routing)
  • Infrastructure-as-code experience (Ansible, Terraform)
  • Linux systems administration
  • Security mindset — you think about attack surfaces

Nice to Have

  • Firecracker, Kata Containers, or microVM isolation
  • KNative or serverless infrastructure
  • Rancher/RKE2 specifically
