Hands-on experience with Infrastructure as Code using Pulumi (TypeScript) to manage and provision infrastructure.
Experience building and maintaining CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions for automated build, test, and deployment workflows.
Familiarity with containerization using Docker (image creation, optimization, registry usage) and deployment workflows using Helm (chart management, templating, releases), Kustomize for resource customization, and FluxCD for GitOps workflows.
Understanding of networking concepts (DNS, load balancers, ingress controllers) and securely connecting managed services (e.g., MongoDB Atlas) to Kubernetes.
Proven experience in monitoring and observability using Grafana (dashboard creation, visualization best practices), Loki (log aggregation, querying, troubleshooting with logs), and Prometheus (metrics collection, alerting, service monitoring).
Experience with build and release management for TypeScript and Rust applications.

About Kake
Kake describes itself as a remote-first community of experienced software engineers that helps client teams add individual engineers or full engineering groups. Its model combines technical vetting and human selection with AI-supported processes; Kake engineers work as dedicated members of client teams rather than as a separate outsourced delivery queue.
The company recruits across frontend, backend, mobile, quality engineering, data and DevOps. Its public hiring pages emphasize end-to-end ownership, collaboration with product and design, and engineering judgment. The exact client, product, team structure and employment terms can vary by opening, so candidates should verify those specifics in the individual listing.
