At Trility Consulting®, we’ve built a strong, remote-work culture where people thrive, grow, and support each other – earning us Great Place to Work® Certification. Headquartered in Central Iowa, we embrace flexible schedules and collaboration across geographically distributed teams serving clients from all corners of the United States and globally.
We seek team members with the grit necessary to forge paths where none previously existed, to get back up when circumstances knock them down, to adapt to the changing needs of the client even when it is uncomfortable, and to deliver on our commitments. Candidates must respect and value people, recognize that over-communication is barely good enough, thrive on solving complex problems, have a passion for building teams, and know that delivering what a client actually values is more important than their own predispositions. They understand value proposition, love delivering value, and take pride in learning the expansive and ever-changing business of clients. Candidates are self-motivated and relentlessly working to become more today than they were yesterday.
What You Will Do
We are seeking a Platform Engineer to design and manage a distributed cloud-to-edge infrastructure across Kubernetes environments. This role will focus on implementing secure, scalable hybrid networking using Cilium and KubeEdge, enabling high-performance connectivity and secure workload communication between centralized Kubernetes clusters and remote edge nodes.
You will help establish a unified networking and identity layer across environments, leveraging eBPF-based policy enforcement, encrypted service communication, and workload identity frameworks. This is an engineering-focused role centered on cloud-native networking, security, and infrastructure automation — not traditional appliance-based networking.
This is a remote 1099 position.
Key Responsibilities
Architect and implement hybrid Kubernetes networking using Cilium CNI, including L3–L7 observability and policy enforcement
Configure and manage Cilium ClusterMesh for multi-cluster connectivity across cloud and edge environments
Implement secure communication between clusters and edge nodes using encrypted networking (e.g., WireGuard)
Deploy and manage KubeEdge (CloudCore / EdgeCore) to support containerized workloads in distributed or resource-constrained environments
Design and enforce Kubernetes Network Policies using eBPF-based tools
Implement workload identity and zero-trust principles using solutions such as Keycloak and SPIFFE/SPIRE
Automate infrastructure provisioning and configuration using Terraform, Helm, and GitOps workflows
Ensure consistent infrastructure-as-code practices across hybrid cloud and edge deploymentsImprove observability, security posture, and deployment scalability across the platform
Qualifications
5+ years of experience in platform engineering, cloud infrastructure, or cloud-native networking
Strong hands-on experience with Kubernetes in production environments
Deep expertise with Cilium CNI, including eBPF-based policy enforcement and multi-cluster networking (ClusterMesh)
Experience working with KubeEdge or similar edge-computing frameworks
Familiarity with BGP peering and advanced Kubernetes networking concepts
Experience implementing Kubernetes Network Policies and runtime security controls
Experience with workload identity frameworks such as Keycloak and SPIFFE/SPIRE
Strong automation skills using Terraform, Helm, and GitOps practicesAbility to collaborate across DevOps, DevSecOps, and IT teams in complex distributed environmentsStrong communication skills and ability to explain cloud-native networking concepts to cross-functional stakeholders
