The Role

Responsibilities:

- Provide access to and validation against actual Kubernetes cluster configurations, not abstract or theoretical designs.
- Confirm that proposed agent and platform architectures are compatible with current cluster topology, scheduling constraints, and operational patterns.
- Act as the final technical authority on Kubernetes-level feasibility for platform and agent designs.
- Validate the Prometheus deployment model, specifically PVC-backed persistent storage for metrics retention and reliability.
- Confirm storage class behavior, volume lifecycle, and resilience characteristics as they relate to Prometheus and long-running collectors.
- Ensure observability designs align with platform standards and operational realities.
- Confirm GPU node topology, including node labeling, taints, tolerations, and scheduling strategies.
- Validate DaemonSet placement models for GPU-scoped workloads and agents.
- Ensure GPU workloads and agents are deployed only where intended and supported.
- Validate DCGM exporter configuration for GPU metrics collection.
- Confirm exporter deployment patterns, permissions, and resource access required for accurate GPU telemetry.
- Ensure agent designs correctly consume GPU metrics without introducing instability or performance impact.
- Participate as an SME in architecture reviews, design walkthroughs, and technical deep dives.
- Identify gaps between proposed designs and real platform constraints early in the lifecycle.
- Provide clear guidance and corrective recommendations to platform, data, and agent engineering teams.

Requirements

- Hands-on expertise with Kubernetes cluster operations in enterprise environments.
- Strong understanding of DaemonSets, node affinity, taints/tolerations, and scheduling mechanics.
