FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about working with GENTY Recruitment.

A Service Mesh Engineer implements and manages the service mesh layer — configuring Istio/Envoy for traffic management, mTLS encryption, observability, canary deployments, circuit breaking, and policy enforcement across microservices.

Istio is the most widely adopted service mesh — built on Envoy proxy, it provides traffic routing, security (mTLS), observability, and policy enforcement. It's the industry standard for Kubernetes-based microservice architectures.

Our engineers work with both Istio and Linkerd. Linkerd is lighter-weight and simpler — ideal for teams that need basic service mesh features without Istio's complexity.

Yes. Service mesh provides built-in observability — request tracing (Jaeger/Zipkin), metrics (Prometheus), and visualisation (Kiali) for understanding microservice communication patterns.

Service Mesh Engineers in LATAM earn $4,500–$7,500/month — 50–70% less than US rates of $10,000–$16,000/month.

First shortlists in 5–7 business days. Service mesh roles average 12–16 days from kickoff to offer.

Yes. Mesh configuration, traffic management, and incident response all happen during US business hours.
