- Experience building and maintaining CI/CD pipelines using tools such as GitHub Actions, CircleCI, Jenkins, or Argo CD
- Experience working with containerized systems such as Docker and containerd
- Familiarity with cloud security best practices and modern approaches to securing infrastructure, including shift-left principles
- Experience operating and scaling high-traffic systems and large-scale data platforms in production environments
- Strong problem-solving skills and a methodical approach to debugging and system design
- Ability to communicate clearly with both technical and non-technical stakeholders in a distributed environment
If Any of the Below Also Describe You, This Could Be an Exciting Opportunity
- Experience improving developer workflows and reducing friction in deployment and infrastructure processes
- Familiarity with tools in the Kubernetes ecosystem such as Helm, Argo CD, and Karpenter
