Job Description
We are looking for a Principal DevOps Engineer to architect and evolve the platform that powers NBC’s broadcast production environments. As a senior technical leader on the NBC Production Application Engineering team, you will design a Kubernetes-native platform that automates the provisioning, lifecycle management, and delivery of cloud infrastructure at enterprise scale.
Our team leverages infrastructure-as-code, custom Kubernetes controllers, and GitOps workflows to orchestrate resources across complex multi-account and hybrid cloud environments. Built to support the complex demands of live broadcast production, this platform spans compute provisioning, dynamic software defined networking, hybrid DNS models, remote Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI), and robust configuration management via Puppet. Because we operate at the cutting edge of the cloud-native ecosystem, we are never shy about contributing upstream to the open-source projects we rely on to improve our solutions and push the industry forward.

This role requires deep fluency across Kubernetes internals, cloud infrastructure, Go systems programming, and a passion for mentoring engineers.
