Software Developer 3

Location: BENGALURU, KARNATAKA, India

The Containers, Kubernetes, and Serverless organization builds services and tools that help teams develop, deploy, and operate cloud-native workloads.

The OKE team is looking for a hands-on Software Developer 3 / IC3 with strong engineering fundamentals, good Kubernetes fundamentals, and a passion for building distributed systems, cloud-native platforms, and highly available services. This is an opportunity to work on Kubernetes-based infrastructure, large-scale service automation, developer productivity tooling, and new agentic AI solutions that help OKE engineers move faster, debug more effectively, and resolve customer issues with greater speed and confidence.

As part of the team, you will design and build systems that operate at cloud scale, improve the reliability and operability of OKE, and contribute to tools that make engineers more productive. You will also get the opportunity to work on AI-assisted and agentic workflows that reason over service telemetry, logs, runbooks, operational history, and code context to accelerate triage, automate repetitive debugging tasks, and improve customer issue resolution.
