Platform Engineer

The engineer will build, administer, secure, automate, and support the Cloudera CDP Public Cloud platform used by HMS Modernization, data ingestion, analytics, and Teradata migration workloads. This hands-on role covers CDP environments, Data Lakes, Data Hubs, CFM/NiFi, operating-system maintenance, security monitoring, upgrades, and application onboarding.

• Provision and administer CDP Public Cloud environments, FreeIPA, Data Lakes, Data Hubs, CDE, CDW, and CFM/NiFi clusters.
• Build and configure CFM 4.x and NiFi 2.x, including NiFi Registry, Schema Registry, Site-to-Site, repositories, queues, load balancing, and high availability.
• Configure Ranger, RAZ, IDBroker, workload identities, S3 access, and prefix-level authorization.
• Support Entra SAML/SSO, SCIM provisioning, CDP roles, groups, machine users, and application access.
• Use CDP CLI, APIs, and automation scripts for provisioning, scaling, upgrades, maintenance, and operational support.
• Configure Data Hub instance groups, storage, autoscaling, multi-AZ deployment, cluster databases, and recovery settings.
• Develop, test, version, and maintain Cloudera Recipes for software installation, configuration, certificates, security agents, and operational automation.
• Maintain Recipe lifecycle hooks, including pre-service deployment and post-Cloudera Manager startup activities.
• Install and support approved security agents such as CrowdStrike and Nessus across CDP-managed EC2 nodes.
• Monitor security-agent installation, registration, service health, scan coverage, and reporting status.
• Plan and execute supported RHEL operating-system patching, kernel updates, security remediation, and controlled reboots.
• Coordinate OS patch compatibility with CDP runtime, Cloudera Manager, Java, Python, parcels, and application dependencies.
• Review vulnerability findings and remediate operating-system, Java, Cloudera, NiFi, and third-party package vulnerabilities.
• Monitor cluster health, capacity, performance, service availability, disk utilization, certificates, licenses, and security events.
• Configure and monitor Cloudera Manager alerts, audit logs, Ranger audits, NiFi bulletins, and integrations with enterprise monitoring platforms.
• Maintain TLS certificates, trust stores, key stores, service credentials, and certificate-renewal procedures.
• Onboard application teams and define isolated S3 paths, Ranger policies, NiFi process groups, workload access, and resource requirements.
• Troubleshoot Cloudera Manager, FreeIPA, NiFi, Spark, Hive, Ranger, Kerberos, S3, KMS, DNS, certificates, and network-connectivity issues.
• Plan and execute CDP runtime, CFM/NiFi, parcel, database, OS, Java, and security-agent upgrades.
• Validate backups, restore procedures, cluster recovery, and disaster-recovery readiness.
• Support Teradata migration and ingestion workflows involving on-premises HDFS, Linux filesystems, NiFi, AWS S3, and cloud data services.
• Maintain platform standards, architecture documentation, onboarding guides, patching procedures, security runbooks, and recovery documentation.
• Participate in production support, incident response, root-cause analysis, maintenance windows, and on-call rotations.
