About the Role 
 
We are seeking a deeply technical Senior OpenStack Engineer to design, build, automate, scale, and operate large-scale production OpenStack environments powering enterprise private clouds, MSP platforms, and high-performance digital twin lab infrastructures. 
 
This is not a UI-driven admin role. We are looking for engineers who understand OpenStack at the service, database, messaging, hypervisor, and packet-flow layers — individuals who can troubleshoot RabbitMQ queues, debug Neutron agents, tune Ceph latency, and automate full cloud deployments from bare metal upward. 
 
You will work on multi-region architectures, high-availability designs, NVMe storage fabrics, SDN integrations, and hybrid cloud platforms supporting global customers. 
 
Primary Responsibilities 
 
1. OpenStack Architecture & Platform Engineering 
 
- Design production-grade OpenStack environments across controller, compute, and storage nodes. 
- Architect HA control planes using HAProxy, Keepalived, Galera, and RabbitMQ clustering. 
- Build scalable cell-based Nova architectures. 
- Implement multi-region replication strategies. 
- Perform platform capacity modeling and growth forecasting. 
 
2. Compute Virtualization (Nova) 
 
- Nova scheduler tuning and filters. 
- CPU pinning and isolation. 
- NUMA topology alignment. 
- HugePages configuration. 
- Live migrations and evacuations. 
- GPU passthrough and SR-IOV provisioning. 
 
Hypervisor stack includes KVM, QEMU, Libvirt, and VirtIO. 
 
3. Networking & SDN (Neutron) 
 
- ML2 plugin architecture. 
- OVS, OVN, Linux Bridge deployments. 
- VXLAN, Geneve, VLAN overlays. 
- DVR and L3 routing. 
- Floating IP NAT design. 
- SR-IOV and DPDK acceleration. 
- Integration with BGP EVPN, MPLS, VRFs, and SD-WAN. 
 
4. Storage Engineering 
 
Ceph (Primary Requirement) 
 
- RBD block storage. 
- CephFS and RGW object storage. 
- CRUSH map tuning. 
- Placement group optimization. 
- BlueStore performance tuning. 
- NVMe and SSD tiering. 
 
Additional exposure to Linstor, DRBD, iSCSI, and NVMe-oF preferred. 
 
5. Image & Lifecycle Services 
 
- Glance image pipelines. 
- QCOW2 optimization. 
- Cloud-init automation. 
- Golden image lifecycle management. 
 
6. Identity & Access (Keystone) 
 
- RBAC modeling. 
- LDAP/AD integration. 
- SAML/SSO federation. 
- Token lifecycle management.
