Dedicated Kubernetes Teams That Deliver
Building a Kubernetes engineering team in-house takes 6-12 months of recruiting, onboarding, and ramp-up. When you hire a dedicated K8s team from Tasrie IT Services, you skip the hiring pain and get a functioning squad in as little as one week -- already aligned on processes, tools, and CNCF best practices.
Our teams operate as an extension of your engineering organization. They bring proven playbooks from 150+ production cluster deployments across AWS EKS, Azure AKS, and Google GKE, combined with deep expertise in DevOps practices and infrastructure automation.
Whether you need a team for a 3-month migration sprint or an ongoing platform engineering function, we assemble the right mix of architect, engineers, and SREs to match your goals and grow with your needs.

FAQs About Hiring a Kubernetes Engineering Team
Common questions about dedicated K8s squads
What roles are included in a Kubernetes engineering team?
A typical K8s squad includes a lead architect, 2-3 platform engineers, and 1-2 SREs. We customize team composition based on your needs -- adding DevSecOps engineers, CI/CD specialists, or DevOps engineers as required.
How quickly can you assemble a Kubernetes team?
We can assemble a core team of 2-3 engineers within 1-2 weeks and scale to a full squad of 5+ within 3-4 weeks. All team members are pre-vetted and certified, ready for immediate onboarding.
How does a dedicated K8s team integrate with our workflow?
Your dedicated Kubernetes team joins your Slack/Teams channels, participates in standups, sprint planning, and retrospectives. They use your ticketing system (Jira, Linear, etc.) and follow your existing development workflow and branching strategies.
Can I scale the team up or down?
Yes. You can scale the team based on project phases -- ramp up for a migration sprint, then scale down for steady-state operations. We offer flexible monthly contracts with 30-day adjustment periods.
What is the minimum engagement period for a K8s team?
The minimum engagement is 3 months for dedicated teams. This allows proper onboarding, delivery of meaningful outcomes, and knowledge transfer. For shorter needs, consider hiring an individual Kubernetes consultant.
