K8s).

• Strong knowledge of DevOps tooling: CI/CD (Jenkins, GitLab CI, ArgoCD), IaC

(Terraform, Pulumi), config management (Helm, Kustomize).

• Solid understanding of Linux systems, networking, and container runtimes (Docker,

containerd).

• Experience in deploying and maintaining secure and multi-tenant Kubernetes

clusters.

• Practical experience with monitoring and observability tools (Prometheus, Grafana,

Fluentd, Loki, ELK).

• Good knowledge of RBAC, Kubernetes security policies, and service mesh (e.g.,

Istio, Linkerd).

• Experience with incident response, reliability engineering, and performance

troubleshooting.

Preferred Skills:

• Exposure to SAP Gardener for cluster lifecycle management.

• Familiarity with SAP ECS (Enterprise Cloud Services) or working knowledge of

SAP S/4HANA, SAP BTP, or SAP HANA.

• Experience with Portworx, NetApp Trident, or other container-native storage

solutions.

• Understanding of multi-cloud environments and hybrid cloud connectivity (e.g.,

VPN, VPC peering).

• Build, test, and maintain CI/CD pipelines for containerized microservices.

• Collaborate with platform teams to integrate SAP Gardener-based Kubernetes

clusters.

• Optimize workload scheduling, networking, and security policies within Kubernetes.

• Implement monitoring, logging, alerting, and observability tools for proactive support

and incident response.

• Participate in on-call rotation and root cause analysis (RCA) for infrastructure and

application-level issues.

• Contribute to defining SOPs, IaC modules, reusable Helm charts, and documentation

for internal consumption.

• Support SAP landscapes and containerized SAP workloads running in Kubernetes

(where applicable).

• Work closely with storage and platform engineering teams for persistent storage

provisioning using Portworx or alternatives.

• Drive adoption of best practices in DevSecOps, reliability engineering, and GitOps

workflows.
