Go / Kubernetes Engineer (B2B)

Proxiad SEE is an IT consulting and software development company, part of Proxiad Group France. Operating in Bulgaria and North Macedonia, we employ over 250 professionals skilled in various sectors: healthcare, finance, e-commerce and retail, transport & logistics, and procurement. We are also the company behind two software solutions for office work — our workplace management software, Desk Buddy, and our performance management software, GROW.

We're seeking a mid- and Senior-level Go / Kubernetes Engineer (B2B) to join a 1-year mission with possibilities for extension.

What you'll do:

• Build Kubernetes Operators/Controllers in Go to automate provisioning and lifecycle management across bare-metal and edge-cloud infrastructure
• Design CRDs, reconciliation logic, and cloud-native Go backend services/APIs
• Integrate infrastructure, networking, and platform layers via Kubernetes APIs
• Automate bare-metal Kubernetes environments and support AI/ML and security teams building Kubernetes-native tooling
• Shape architecture decisions for distributed cloud/edge systems; write automated tests (unit/integration/e2e); debug Go services and controllers; participate in code review

Must-haves:

Go engineering

• 5+ years in software development, 3+ years hands-on Go
• Solid grasp of interfaces/composition, error handling, module design, dependency management, standard library
• Strong concurrency skills: goroutines, channels, sync primitives, context/cancellation
• Experience building long-running services, controllers, or distributed systems in Go
• REST and/or gRPC API design/consumption
• Automated testing (unit + integration) and hands-on debugging experience

Kubernetes / cloud-native

• Built Operators/Custom Controllers in Go; strong Kubernetes API experience
• CRD design; solid understanding of the reconciliation pattern and controller lifecycle
• Working knowledge of controller-runtime, client-go, Kubebuilder and/or Operator SDK
• Understands reconciliation loops, watches, informers/caching, status/conditions, finalizers, owner references
• Experience across bare-metal, managed Kubernetes, and distributed/edge setups
• Builds containerized Go applications

Infrastructure / networking

• Familiarity with cloud, edge, and IoT infra concepts
• Understands bare-metal provisioning automation and low-level networking
• Grasp of how Kubernetes interacts with compute, storage, and networking
• Solid distributed-systems and infra-architecture fundamentals

Background

• Telco domain exposure — a plus
• CS/Engineering/IT degree or equivalent practical experience
• Comfortable working cross-functionally with infra, networking, security, and AI/ML engineers

Nice-to-haves:

• Admission webhooks / Kubernetes API extension mechanisms
• API machinery & versioning knowledge
• Testing controllers with envtest or similar
• Cluster API (CAPI) or comparable lifecycle frameworks
• Bare-metal provisioning tools: Metal³/Bare Metal Operator, Ironic, or similar
• CNI / Kubernetes networking knowledge
• Infrastructure as Code / automation experience
• GitOps tooling exposure
• Observability stack experience (Prometheus, OpenTelemetry)
• Go performance profiling (pprof)
• Kubernetes security: RBAC, admission control, secrets management, workload security
• Kubernetes-native AI/ML workload experience
• Exposure to telco/highly distributed edge cloud architectures

All applications will be treated with strict confidentiality.
Only short-listed applicants will be contacted.
