Responsibilities:

- Strong understanding of distributed-systems fundamentals: reliability, idempotency, concurrency, and observability, and a genuine concern for code structure and design.

- Production experience running cloud-native services in Azure and/or AWS.

- A track record of mentoring engineers and elevating team practices.

- Fluent in Agile/Scrum delivery and Git-based source control; exposure to Docker, Kubernetes, and Terraform is a plus.
