Experience with IaaS cloud infrastructure, Kubernetes, containers, and service-oriented architectures.
Excellence in problem-solving, strategic thinking, and collaboration with cross-functional teams.
Strong written and verbal communication skills and ability to connect with empathy when delivering constructive feedback regarding infrastructure matters to engineers and product designers.
What's in it for you
