  • Cloud & Production Expertise: Extensive experience with production-grade infrastructure, particularly AWS (EC2, S3, RDS, Lambda, API Gateway, CloudWatch, IAM).
  • Infrastructure as Code: Deep expertise with Terraform.
  • CI/CD Migration Experience: Hands-on experience with CI/CD platforms (GitHub Actions, Jenkins, GitLab CI), especially within migration projects (e.g., from Bitbucket to GitHub).
  • Containerization: Familiarity with Docker and Kubernetes.
  • Core Fundamentals: Solid understanding of networking, IAM, and platform security.
  • Database Acumen: Experience with SQL, NoSQL, and data warehouses (MySQL, DynamoDB, Snowflake).
  • Scripting Versatility: Proficient in Bash, Python, or Go.
  • Mentorship: Proven experience mentoring individuals and fostering team growth.
  • Collaboration: Excellent communication and teamwork.

Ready to lead critical infrastructure rebuilds and mentor a talented team in a flexible, remote-first environment? Apply to the role and a member of our team will be in touch to guide you through the interview process
