About your role
Deepturnaround is designed for Kubernetes clusters in the Azure cloud. We currently use many native features Azure provides, however some clients want to deploy Deepturnaround in another cloud, on-prem or even air-gapped.
You will help us to design, create and deploy a cloud agnostic version of Deepturnaround. Samen met het infra team integreer je deze alternatieven in onze stack zodat we Deepturnaround overal ter wereld kunnen implementeren, zelfs on-prem.
Your tasks
– Find cloud agnostic alternatives for the Azure cloud features Deepturnaround currently is using, i.e. Kubernetes, storage, databases, Kafka and authentication and more.
– Collaborate closely with the infra team to design, build and deploy these alternatives.
– Plan and test day-two operations so we can be confident that our cloud agnostic alternatives are valid.
– Document the alternatives so we (or the client) can manage them in the future.
– Assist our developers in migrating from Azure native to cloud agnostic development tools.
– Assist the team with solving questions and challenges our non-Azure clients might have.
