• Deploying and maintaining edge gateways that translate industrial protocols into standardized MQTT payloads
• Authoring and automating installation and operational qualification validation protocols within containerized environments
• Enforcing strict GitOps deployment patterns to ensure audit readiness for configuration changes
• Building and securing automated pipelines utilizing GitHub and ArgoCD or Flux
• Deploying and supporting monitoring platforms to track cluster health and edge connection lifecycles
• Configuring alerts to catch anomalies before they impact manufacturing operations

Requirements

• Minimum 5 years of experience in DevOps engineering with a strong focus on Kubernetes and MQTT
• Deep expertise in managing Kubernetes operations, including Helm, CRDs, and Operators
• Hands-on mastery of MQTT broker management and performance tuning for industrial applications
• Practical experience with industrial OT protocols such as OPC UA, Modbus, and Profinet
• Solid understanding of GxP/CSV validation and data integrity principles
