About PulsePoint:
PulsePoint is a fast-growing healthcare technology company (with adtech roots) using real-time data to transform healthcare. We help brands and agencies interpret the hard-to-read signals across the health journey and unify these digital determinants of health with real-world data to produce the most dimensional view of the customer. Our award-winning advertising platforms use machine learning and programmatic automation to seamlessly activate this data, making marketing, predictive analytics, and decision support easy and instantaneous.
Sr. Platform Engineer, Golang:
As a Sr. Platform Engineer, you will help future proof our existing k8s based platform.
What you'll be doing:
  • You will collect and analyze requirements from developer, data management and system reliability teams to enhance our kubernetes-based platform to meet the needs of the company.

  • You will work with upstream project maintainers to integrate our customizations upstream if there is community interest.
  • You will integrate bug fixes from upstream into our forked projects for customizations we are unable to integrate into upstream projects.
  • You will test new versions of the platform components and prepare zero downtime upgrades for production clusters.
  • You will identify areas needing improvement, look for potential replacements for current platform components and stage them to confirm we will benefit from migration to the new component.
  • You will help the SRE team with automating cluster diagnostic and issue recovery as needed.
  • You will help development teams with setting up their CICD pipelines and implementing gitops for their workloads.
What you’ll need:

  • Familiarity with Golang's Kubernetes client library, async programming and test driven Golang development is needed.
  • Contributions to open source projects related to Kubernetes in Golang are welcome.
  • Ability to customize open source tools written in Golang is needed.
  • Familiarity with kube-router is welcome but not required as long as you are familiar with LVS, BGP protocol and Linux firewall.
  • Familiarity with project contour and/or running envoy, haproxy or nginx reverse proxies to implement external ingress into Kubernetes cluster is required.
  • Ability to port legacy applications to run inside of the Kubernetes cluster required, ability to package the apps as helm charts is welcome.
  • Ability to automate infrastructure tasks, create CICD pipelines and issue detection and recovery using Kubernetes is needed.
  • Ability to configure and provision monitoring and alerting using Prometheus and ability to create own metric exporters for legacy apps is needed.
  • Ability to configure and run centralized log aggregation using elastic search stacks is preferred but loki is also acceptable.
  • Ability to collect requirements and implement solutions for SRE, network engineering and app development teams is needed.
Bonus, but not required:
  • Ability to troubleshoot and resolve production issues under pressure is needed, ability to detect and/or automatically resolve production issues before they happen or have revenue impact is preferred.
  • Knowledge of kubeadm and Puppet is welcome but not required as long as you know how to bootstrap and run a highly available kubernetes cluster in a secure and automated fashion.
  • Knowledge of rook and ceph is welcome but not required as long as you have experience in persisting state in a cluster using other storage tools.
  • Familiarity with Java and Kubernetes-native Java frameworks like Quarkus is welcome but not required.
