Platform Engineer- Edge Team

Location: Tel Aviv

Department: R&D

About the position

Salt Security protects APIs for large enterprises. Many of them will not send their traffic to anyone else's cloud, so they run our platform themselves - inside their own data centres and their own cloud accounts. The Edge team builds and ships what those customers run: the container images, the Helm charts, and the multi-region delivery that puts it all in their hands.

What will you do?

• Build and maintain the Helm charts and container images that enterprises install, and keep them correct across the versions customers are actually running.
• Own the container supply chain: multi-architecture builds, base-image and dependency currency, vulnerability remediation, and proving a fix genuinely reached the shipped artifact rather than just the source.
• Build and maintain the CI/CD that produces all of it.
• Collaborate with internal teams and field engineers to ensure seamless integration and deployment of applications.
• Use tools like Helm charts, Terraform, and GitOps to automate and manage deployments in cloud environments.
• Develop edge applications for cloud environments, primarily using Go.
  
  

Who are you?

• 3-5 years in Platform, DevOps, or Infrastructure engineering.
• Hands-on experience operating Kubernetes in production environments - running real workloads and debugging live cluster failures, not only using managed services.
• Experience authoring or substantially reworking Helm charts, beyond consuming existing ones.
• Hands-on experience designing and building CI/CD pipelines from scratch, not only maintaining existing ones.
• Hands-on experience with Cloud providers, with the security and operational complexity that implies.
• Excellent communication skills, with the ability to collaborate across teams and customer environments.
• Strong problem-solving and troubleshooting skills, particularly with distributed systems and cloud infrastructure.

 

Counts for a lot: having shipped anything a customer installs and runs themselves - on-prem software, an appliance, an agent, an air-gapped install, a released library you then had to support.
