How to hire Kubernetes developers? Skills to look for, interview questions, and more
Kubernetes is growing in popularity as a standard way to run and test software applications in the modern tech world. It focuses on bridging the gap between development and application deployment. Companies that wish to build and maintain new development tools and cloud infrastructure IT services must hire the best Kubernetes developers.
There are several factors to consider while hiring an experienced Kubernetes developer. You should evaluate for a wide range of skills including experience with continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) processes, Agile principles, and more.
Hiring a Kubernetes developer is easy, but hiring the right developer with adequate experience and knowledge is difficult and equally time-consuming. To ease the effort, Turing offers the best remote Kubernetes developers deeply vetted to a high standard at half the price. If you are a non-technical manager and interested in learning more about the hiring process for a Kubernetes developer, we've put up an excellent resource for you.
Skills to look for in a Kubernetes developer?
At a high level, Kubernetes developers should have the following skills in his/her arsenal:
1. Understanding the Continuous Integration/Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) pipeline
Continuous Integration/Continuous Delivery or Deployment (CI/CD) is a method to frequently deliver applications by introducing automation into the software development process. It enables transparency, eliminates manual tasks, and prevents multiple coding flaws, especially for development and operations teams. To be a successful Kubernetes developer, the candidate must have knowledge as well as hands-on experience in Continuous Integration/Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) environments along with other critical skills.
2. Competency in Agile methodology
Agile software development methodologies are centered around the idea of iterative development, where developers or teams are able to deliver value faster, with greater quality, predictive skills, and proactive response to change. An experienced Kubernetes developer must have proficient knowledge of how this methodology works and how to implement it in software development.
3. Expert skills in version control systems
Version control systems are critical aspects of everyday modern software development and professional practices. Software engineering is thus incomplete without the knowledge of code versioning tools. Generally, versioning tools such as Git enable Kubernetes developers to control the different steps along the software development life cycle. Hence, Kubernetes developers who are familiar with development using such platforms can work efficiently on any project.

4. Experience in various programming languages
The field of software engineering is wide and tons of different programming languages are used for various development frameworks and requirements. With this in mind, it is essential to ensure that the Kubernetes developers, you want to hire, have good proficiency in various popular programming languages such as Python, Java, JavaScript, C#, C++, PHP, etc., in order to meet the business requirements.

5. Familiarity with containers
One of the most efficient ways to use Kubernetes is by putting code into a container. With the help of containers, Kubernetes developers can utilize fewer system resources and deploy software on multiple operating systems. To flourish in Kubernetes development, the individual must have appropriate knowledge of how containers work and how to utilize them in building software.
6. Understanding of databases
Database knowledge enables developers to configure Kubernetes to properly handle data storage requirements, including implementing persistent volumes, setting up database backups, optimizing database performance, and ensuring data integrity. It also helps in troubleshooting and resolving database-related issues that may arise during Kubernetes deployment and operation. This is why you should consider hiring Kubernetes developers who are well-versed in various DBMS technologies such as MongoDB, Cassandra, Oracle, MySQL, etc.
7. Proficiency in cloud computing services
Knowledge of cloud computing is crucial for Kubernetes developers due to the close integration between Kubernetes and cloud platforms. Kubernetes is designed to run and manage applications in a cloud-native environment, leveraging the scalability, flexibility, and resources offered by cloud providers.
Developers with knowledge of cloud computing understand how to leverage cloud services like virtual machines, networking, storage, and load balancing to optimize Kubernetes deployments. While shortlisting Kubernetes developers for hire, you must check their proficiency in working with various cloud computing systems, like AWS, GCP, Azure, etc.
Create a hiring funnel
Creating a hiring funnel will provide you with numerous benefits, like assisting you in identifying the top skills and identifying a Kubernetes developer who will fit into your company's culture.
What Turing does for you
Candidates screening
We will help you select the best talents and hire a Kubernetes developer who will fit in your company culturally.
Test task
We verify if the candidate really wants to work at your company and is able to spend 5+ hours to prove it by rigorous tests. It helps us to see a developer's caliber.
Technical test
Developers are asked Kubernetes related questions and made to solve tricky problems. We use open questions. The goal is not only to test developers’ knowledge – we also want to find out their way of thinking.
Giving specific feedback
We provide explicit feedback on both the test task and the technical test after we have checked the developer's expertise.
What you do
Interview
You can interview the shortlisted developers to check if the candidate matches your requirements and is a good fit for your company.
Hired/Not-hired
Hire intelligently with developers sourced by software, vetted by software, matched by software & managed by software.
