Who You'll Work With

You will join one of our 45 offices in the US, be part of a committed team of over 1500 professionals, and work in teams and directly with our clients doing work that is shaping the world around us. You will be welcomed into a rapidly growing business and team and empowered to make an impact. You will be valued, cared for, and challenged on your path to becoming a world-class professional consultant and surrounded by leaders who are committed to creating an environment that enables you to realize your own success and fulfillment.

When you join Design Group as a Sr. Software Engineer, you are joining a team that will challenge you and position you for growth. Design Group is widely known as an industry leader, recognized as a top system integrator, ranking #7 in the 2023 System Integrator Giants; as a Rockwell Platinum Integrator, the highest designation given to Rockwell partners; and as an Ignition Enterprise Premier Integrator. As a part of this team, you will learn from industry leading experts and may even have the chance to be an active participant in industry events like the Ignition Build-A-Thon which Design Group won in 2023!

In this role, you will work with a team of industry experts to help the world's leading companies solve their most difficult problems. You will join our Control System Integration Practice and partner with seasoned leaders, technical specialists, and subject matter experts to deliver the highest quality solutions to our clients with consistency and accuracy.

What You'll Do

• Assist in containerizing industrial applications (e.g., Ignition by Inductive Automation) using Docker, ensuring compatibility with production manufacturing workloads.

• Develop and maintain Kubernetes configurations, including manifests, Helm charts, operators, and ArgoCD application sets, to support automated, GitOps-driven deployments.

• Collaborate with DevOps and development teams to integrate CI/CD pipelines (e.g., Jenkins, GitHub Actions) with Kubernetes for seamless project delivery.

• Support the implementation of advanced Kubernetes features like auto-scaling, rollouts (e.g., via Kargo or similar tools), and high-availability setups.

• Contribute to troubleshooting and optimizing Kubernetes clusters (cloud or on-prem) for performance, security, and cost efficiency.

• Work with SCADA/MES engineers to translate application requirements into containerized, Kubernetes-native solutions, ensuring alignment with client needs.

• Contribute to developing firm-wide standards and procedures for developing client-owned production containerized applications.

• Represent the company positively, aligning with our culture and Guiding Principles of Leadership.

What You'll Bring

• 6+ years of direct DevOps or cloud solutions architecture experience.

• 3-5+ years of experience with Kubernetes specifically in production environments, ideally with stateful or complex applications (relevant project experience counts).

• Hands-on experience building and optimizing Docker containers for production workloads.

• Proficiency in writing Kubernetes YAML manifests, Helm charts, or Custom Resource Definitions (CRDs).

• Familiarity with GitOps tools like ArgoCD (or FluxCD) for automated deployments.

• Strong scripting skills in Bash, Python, or Go for automation tasks.

• Basic understanding of CI/CD pipelines and their integration with Kubernetes (e.g., Jenkins, GitLab CI, GitHub Actions).

• Knowledge of Kubernetes networking, storage, and security concepts (e.g., services, ingresses, PVs/PVCs, RBAC).

• Willingness to learn industrial automation platforms (e.g., Ignition, FactoryTalk, Wonderware) and apply Kubernetes expertise to manufacturing use cases.

• Experience in manufacturing environments (e.g., food and beverage, life sciences, or industrial automation) is a plus but not required.

• Familiarity with cloud platforms (AWS EKS, Azure AKS, Google GKE) or on-prem Kubernetes (e.g., OpenShift, K3s) is a bonus.

• Exposure to monitoring tools (e.g., Prometheus, Grafana) or Java-based development (e.g., for Ignition modules) is a plus.

• Good communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively with colleagues, clients, and vendors.

• Personal ownership over success in developing industry standards and enterprise direction in containerized industrial applications.

• Willing and able to travel as needed for project requirements, including installations, client meetings, or industry events (travel will be supported).

• Certified Kubernetes Administrator or Certified Kubernetes Application Developer credentials are preferred.

• Minimum B.S. in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field is preferred. Consideration will be given to degrees in Industrial Engineering, Manufacturing, or related fields with relevant technical experience or coursework in Kubernetes/containerization.

The approximate pay range for this position is $130k-$170k. Please note that the pay range provided is a good faith estimate for the position at the time of posting. Final compensation may vary based on factors including but not limited to background, knowledge, skills, and abilities as well as geographic location of the position.

Our model and entrepreneurial mindset offer a rewarding, challenging, and highly flexible path.
