Hire Dedicated Kubernetes Engineers
Add a vetted engineer to design, operate and scale your container clusters in production, without the cost of a full-time hire.
50+ ERP and software projects. Zero failed projects since 2021.
A cluster left on autopilot fails quietly, then all at once
Pods stuck pending, scaling rules that never fire, and a networking config nobody fully understands are common once a cluster grows past its original setup. A dedicated engineer keeps it healthy as you scale.
Autoscaling rules tuned to real traffic
Default autoscaling settings rarely match real traffic patterns, which means pods either sit idle or fall behind under load. A dedicated engineer tunes scaling rules against actual usage, and adjusts them as traffic patterns change.
- Autoscaling tuned to real traffic.
- Resource requests and limits set correctly.
- Pending pods diagnosed, not ignored.
Someone watching the cluster, not just the app
Application monitoring alone misses cluster-level problems: node pressure, networking issues, or a failing deployment rollout. A dedicated engineer monitors the cluster itself, so problems surface before users notice.
- Cluster health monitored, not assumed.
- Rollouts that fail safely, not silently.
- Networking configured deliberately.
One cluster view, checked continuously
The same monitoring structure applies whether the cluster runs a dozen pods or a few thousand.
From requirements to a working Kubernetes engineer in about two weeks
Everything you need to run the engagement smoothly
Dedicated to your cluster
The engineer works only on your infrastructure, not spread across other clients' clusters.
Direct communication
You and your team talk to the engineer directly, with no extra layer in between.
Flexible contracts
Full time, part time, or scoped to a migration. Scale up or down with notice.
Cluster health reviews
Regular reviews of scaling, networking and node health, so issues are caught early.
Timezone overlap
Working hours arranged to overlap with your team for deploys and incident response.
Replacement guarantee
If the engineer is not the right fit, we replace them at no extra cost during the engagement.

How Hiring a Dedicated Kubernetes Engineer Works
From the requirements call to a cluster that scales the way you meant it to. Here is how we vet, match and onboard every Kubernetes engineer we place.
Vetting, matching and onboarding, in that order
Every engineer is tested on real cluster operations
Before an engineer joins our bench, they are tested on deployment and scaling fundamentals, networking, and a hands-on task diagnosing a stuck rollout under simulated load.
- Deployment and scaling fundamentals.
- Cluster networking proficiency.
- A real stuck-rollout diagnosis task.
You get a shortlist, not a resume pile
We match engineers to your specific setup: the workloads you run, the scale of your cluster, and the timezone overlap that works for your team. You see 2 to 3 fitting profiles, not fifty.
- Matched to the workloads you run.
- Matched to your cluster's scale.
- Matched to your working hours.
A structured start, then you take the lead
The engineer reviews your cluster, deployments and current scaling rules, agrees priorities with you, and starts on the first fix in the first week. You manage priorities directly from there.
- A review of your cluster and deployments.
- Agreed priorities for the first sprint.
- Direct day-to-day management by your team.
