As a Lead Infrastructure Engineer at JPMorgan Chase within Enterprise Technology Compute Infrastructure Platforms team, you will design, engineer, and operate an on-premises OpenShift-based platform that hosts both containers and virtual machines (e.g., OpenShift Virtualization / KubeVirt). You will own the underlying infrastructure and OpenShift cluster foundations, compute, hypervisor platforms, operating systems, networking, storage, security controls, and reliability enabling product teams to deploy workloads safely, consistently, and efficiently. This is an infrastructure engineering role focused on platform lifecycle and reliability, partnering closely with hardware engineering, networking, storage, security, identity/access, and platform consumers.

Job Responsibilities

DesignOpenShift cluster architectures (on-premises and/or hybrid) to meet availability, scalability, security, and operability requirements.

BuildandoperateOpenShift clusters end-to-end, including install, upgrade, patching, scaling, resilience testing as well as virtualization capabilities supporting VM lifecycle (images/templates and relevant hardware acceleration concepts such as SR-IOV/DPDK/GPU passthrough, where applicable).

Engineerthe platform to support both Kubernetes workloads and VM workloads, including capacity planning, performance management, placement strategies, and HA/DR considerations.

OwnLinux platform fundamentals (e.g., RHEL/CoreOS concepts, kernel/sysctl tuning, certificates, and identity integration basics) required for reliable cluster operations.

Implementandtroubleshootcore networking capabilities (routing/switching fundamentals, DNS, L4/L7 concepts, load balancing, firewalling, segmentation, and packet-path analysis).

Integratestorage services for container and VM workloads (block/file/object concepts, CSI drivers, performance and failure modes, and backup/restore approaches).

Drivereliability practices including observability, incident response, root-cause analysis, and preventative improvements across the platform lifecycle.

Developrunbooks, standards, and reference architectures;leadoperational readiness reviews and post-incident actions.

Usesenterprise-authorized AI capabilities within the work environment to accelerate analysis of complex infrastructure signals and documentation of mitigation options, validating outputs and handling operational data according to sensitivity and security requirements.

Leadsreuse-first adoption of AI-assisted practices across delivery and automation routines to reduce recurring issues, ensuring changes are validated, traceable and auditable, and aligned to resiliency and security expectations.

Required qualifications, capabilities, and skills

Formal training or certification on infrastructure engineering concepts and 5+ years applied experience.

Hands-on administration ofRed Hat OpenShift and Kubernetesin production environments (e.g., install/upgrade patterns such as IPI/UPI, Operators, SCC/RBAC, cluster operators, ingress).

Experience operating Kubernetes/container platforms through day-2 operations (upgrades, scaling, troubleshooting, and platform lifecycle management).

Experience withOpenShift Virtualization / KubeVirt(or equivalent VM-on-Kubernetes) and VM/container co-tenancy design considerations.

StrongLinuxadministration and troubleshooting experience (e.g., system performance, certificates, OS configuration, and cluster node operations).

Demonstrated troubleshooting depth inat least twoof the following domains: networking, storage, virtualization.

Experience designing and operatinghighly available platforms, including capacity management, incident handling, root-cause analysis, and remediation tracking.

Experience partnering with security/compliance stakeholders on hardening, RBAC, secrets/certificates handling, and vulnerability management aligned to secure-by-default configurations.

Experience implementing infrastructure automation and configuration-as-code practices (e.g., Ansible/Terraform/GitOps patterns) with traceability and auditability.

Demonstrated experience using enterprise-authorized AI capabilities within the work environment to support infrastructure engineering workflows with strong validation habits and awareness of data sensitivity.

Ability to review and validate AI-assisted recommendations before implementation, escalating when uncertain and ensuring outcomes align to resiliency, security, and auditability expectations.

Preferred qualifications, capabilities and Skills

Familiarity with OpenShift observability stacks (Prometheus/Grafana/Alertmanager, logging, tracing) and operational maturity practices.

Experience with service mesh, ingress controllers, API gateways, or platform networking plugins aligned to your stack.

Experience with enterprise storage technologies and their performance/failure characteristics in containerized environments.

Familiarity using generative AI tools to accelerate research, troubleshooting, and documentation workflows (with appropriate governance).
