• Expertise in public cloud-based networking and security (e.g., AWS VPC & Security Groups, Cloudflare, etc.)
• Extensive experience investigating and resolving technical problems, especially in the context of incident response, using cloud observability solutions (e.g., Datadog, New Relic, etc.)
• Experience designing and applying automated testing and tooling to reduce maintenance overhead and operational toil
• Demonstrated experience planning and executing complex infrastructure and application migrations in production environments
• Demonstrated proficiency with IaC tools (Terraform is a plus) and CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions is a plus).

• Familiarity with data stores (e.g., MySQL, Redis, DynamoDB)
• AWS or equivalent cloud solutions architect certifications are a plus
• Experience with creating agentic agents to minimize operational toil is a plus
• Experience with platform engineering and building self-service developer platforms is a plus

Values you’ll model

• Be Kind and Care — build with empathy; assume positive intent; support teammates and members.
• Live Good Health — champion healthy habits and balance in how we work and what we ship.
• Be Data-Inspired — ground decisions in research and data; measure what matters.
