Our take: The real work here is operating and improving a Kubernetes platform so that other engineers can ship safely, through GitOps, Terraform, and self-service tooling.

If you like keeping production Kubernetes healthy and turning fragile deploy steps into clean, self-service tooling, this Runway team is built for you. You will own GitOps workflows, write Terraform that other engineers actually trust, and make the platform something developers reach for rather than fight. It is a fully remote, hands-on role where good documentation and calm incident response are prized as much as clever automation.
