Kubernetes Software Engineer

At Prodrive Technologies, many different disciplines within the field of software engineering are relevant for our products and processes. Ranging from microcontrollers to highly interactive single page web applications, we do it all. We consider ourselves early adopters when it comes to new technologies and are a big fan of using and contributing to open source.

Prodrive Technologies is currently in the process of transforming some of its business applications from a virtualized environment into a Kubernetes cluster. With the highly demanding applications that we run in-house ranging from AI-driven visual inspection to planning tools, reliability and availability is key.

We wouldn’t be Prodrive Technologies if we would not go at least one step further. The Kubernetes cluster is not just any cluster. In fact, it is driven by Prodrive Kubernetes Services (PKS). An in-house developed distribution of Kubernetes that is optimized for air-gapped environments. Not just for our customers, but also for our own factory, how cool is that?

PKS is a multi-disciplinary product that will give you the freedom to specialize within your field, whether this is working on the front-end, the higher level back-end functionality, the lower-level hardware integration, or a combination. You decide.

Some of our projects for Kubernetes Software Engineers

Simplifying the deployment and management of containerized applications

Prodrive Kubernetes Services (PKS) is a platform that allows users to easily deploy and manage containerized applications. It is an extension of Prodrive Centralized Management (PCM) which is used for managing many devices. 

Tasks like provisioning a cluster, configuring persistent storage, and creating workloads are done only in a few clicks using the PKS web interface.

The long-term goals are to focus on optimizing AI workloads which will be important in the future

Developing supercomputers for cutting edge applications

The computing systems that Prodrive Technologies develops are used in embedded applications such as image processing, motion control and system control. They process the image data of live X-ray and control the stages of lithography machines that produce the chips in our iPhones. The need for data processing keeps increasing and bigger and bigger systems are necessary to keep up with market demand. Although we also supply single-server applications, we have customers that demand multi-rack systems that exceed 10,000 cores. Every day, we work on solving the challenges to make these systems work easily, efficiently, and reliably.
