Contract
Remote
Senior LevelZonForce Technology is seeking a RedHat Architect for a 12+ month contract role. The position involves advanced SDN and tenant isolation, implementing user-defined networks, and optimizing virtualization layers for high-performance workloads.
Information Technology & Services
Responsibilities
Openshift Virtualization (Architect Level - ability to assess customer environment and make recommendations for integration and migration plans)
Experience with SDN (Software Defined Networking) and Tenant Isolation - BGP Dynamic Routing
Experience with Kubernetes (OVN-Kubernetes, KubeVirt)
Advanced SDN & Tenant Isolation (UDN/cUDN)
Layer 3 Segmentation via OVN-Kubernetes: Implementing User Defined Networks (UDN) to support Over lapping RFC1918 IP space across multiple sites while maintaining cryptographic or logical isolation
BGP Dynamic Routing via FRR-K8s: Configuring the FRR-K8s Operator to dynamically advertise UDN-specific routes to the physical Leaf/Spine fabric, specifically handling multi-hop BGP or complex prefix-filtering
Hardware Offloading: Tuning the CNI for high-performance edge workloads (e.g., SR-IOV or DPDK integration within a UDN)
Nested OCP Environments (OCP on VMaaS)
Recursive Virtualization Performance: Optimizing the KubeVirt/OpenShift Virtualization layer to host "Guest" Open Shift clusters with minimal latency overhead
Networking for Nested Clusters: Solving the "Double Overlay" problem—ensuring that the networking in the nested cluster can communicate efficiently with the physical network without triple- encapsulation penalties
Storage Pass-through: Configuring Dell PowerFlex CSI to provide persistent volumes through the virtualization layer to the nested K8s nodes while maintaining snapshot capabilities
