Your future role
Take on a new challenge and apply your technical expertise in a cutting-edge field. You’ll work alongside innovative, collaborative, and solutions-driven teammates.
You'll play a key role in shaping the end-to-end software and infrastructure architecture for products based on Hyper Converged Infrastructure (HCI) platforms.

Defining and maintaining the end-to-end software and infrastructure architecture for HCI-based products
Ensuring architectural consistency across virtualization, deployment, networking, and security domains
Architecting solutions supporting multiple hypervisors, including XCP-NG and KVM-based platforms
Guiding adaptations of deployment and orchestration tools to support various platforms
Promoting the reuse of existing tools, frameworks, and commercial or open-source solutions
Identifying and formalizing administration use cases for virtualized environments
Ensuring compliance with secure boot, platform security principles, and lifecycle security
Collaborating with cybersecurity stakeholders to validate system hardening and trust chains
Defining network architecture principles, including VLAN design and high-bandwidth requirements
Assessing technology obsolescence risks and ensuring sustainability

Strong understanding of networking principles, including VLANs, segmentation, and latency considerations
Awareness of security and isolation mechanisms in virtualized platforms, including secure boot concepts
Experience with automation, deployment, or platform tooling (CI/CD, Infrastructure as Code, orchestration concepts)
Ability to work in multi-hypervisor environments and understand nested virtualization concepts
