Bright Vision Technologies is a forward-thinking software development company dedicated to building innovative solutions that help businesses automate and optimize their operations. We are looking for a skilled Service Mesh Engineer (Istio / Linkerd) to join our dynamic team and contribute to our mission of transforming business processes through technology.
Requirements
- Design and operate service mesh platforms — primarily Istio and Linkerd — across multi-cluster Kubernetes environments.
- Implement and operate mTLS, certificate rotation, and identity propagation across the mesh.
- Define traffic management policies including routing, retries, circuit breaking, and fault injection.
- Integrate the mesh with ingress, egress, and API gateway tiers for unified traffic management.
- Build observability for mesh traffic including distributed tracing, golden signals, and topology visualization.
- Design multi-cluster and cross-cluster mesh topologies for high availability and tenant isolation.
- Profile and optimize mesh performance, sidecar resource usage, and control-plane footprint, applying systematic measurement, targeted improvements, and data-driven validation to deliver quantifiable gains in throughput, latency, or resource efficiency.
- Develop paved-road adoption patterns and onboarding guides that make mesh adoption easy for app teams.
- Implement authorization policies and zero-trust patterns at the service mesh layer.
- Operate service mesh upgrades, control-plane lifecycle management, and configuration governance, applying disciplined release practices that keep the mesh current without disrupting workloads running on top of it.
- Partner with SRE, platform, and security teams on mesh policy and incident response.
- Troubleshoot complex networking, mTLS, and traffic issues spanning sidecar and gateway tiers.
- Maintain runbooks, architecture diagrams, and onboarding materials for the service mesh platform.
- Stay current with Istio, Linkerd, Cilium, and broader service mesh ecosystem developments.
