• Experience with API design, microservices, event-driven architectures, data integration, and messaging (e.g., Kafka, MQ)
• Hands-on with cloud platforms and containerization (e.g., AWS/Azure/GCP, Kubernetes, Docker), or private cloud equivalents
• Expertise in CI/CD tooling, testing strategies (unit, integration, performance), observability (logs, metrics, traces), and feature flagging
• Solid understanding of application security, secrets management, IAM, and vulnerability management
• Excellent communication, stakeholder management, and decision-making skills

Nice-to-Haves:

• Exposure to AI/ML-enabled features, data pipelines, or analytics platforms
• Experience in data warehousing with Snowflake, orchestrating workflows in Airflow, and implementing modular analytics pipelines with dbt (including CI/CD for dbt, testing, and documentation)
