Some knowledge of AWS services and tools such as Kubernetes, Terraform, Datadog, and Git/Git Hub workflows
Experience designing or improving cross‑team processes through automation
Ability to think holistically about systems, data, and user needs – and turn that into working, maintainable solutions
