About the role

The Red Hat Advanced Cluster Management (ACM) team is looking for a Software Engineer to help build and evolve enterprise-grade cloud-native platform products for Kubernetes and hybrid cloud environments. This is a platform product engineering role focused on designing, developing, and delivering core product capabilities that enable customers to manage Kubernetes clusters at scale. The role is centered on building reusable platform components, APIs, controllers, operators, and multicluster management capabilities that become part of Red Hat's product portfolio. You will work on foundational capabilities including multicluster orchestration, placement, governance, policy management, GitOps integration, and cluster lifecycle management. In addition, you will help pioneer AI-native software engineering practices through context engineering, AI-assisted development workflows, and agentic software development lifecycle initiatives. You will collaborate with globally distributed engineering teams across North America, Europe, and APAC while contributing to Open Cluster Management (OCM), a CNCF Sandbox project, and the broader Kubernetes and CNCF open source ecosystem.

Requirements

3+ years of software engineering experience building platform products, infrastructure software, cloud-native platforms, or distributed systems.

1+ year of hands-on experience in AI context engineering, context orchestration, prompt engineering, retrieval optimization, or AI-native developer workflows.

Practical experience using AI-assisted development tools such as Claude Code, Gemini Code Assist, GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Aider, Continue, or similar platforms.

Experience with either Go (Golang) development or Kubernetes platform technologies.
