• Collaborate across the enterprise to drive consensus and understanding.

Qualifications And Experience

• Working knowledge of source control, branching & release strategies, pull requests and automated quality gates using tools such as GitHub.
• Working knowledge of CI/CD tools such as Github Actions.
• Working knowledge of binary management tools such as JFrog Artifactory.
• 2+ years of experience in public cloud (AWS) in building services using cloud native technologies including Kubernetes, Docker, serverless, etc.
• Working experience in rethinking/reimagining existing product/platform architectures as they migrate to the cloud. This includes decomposing monoliths, scalability, resiliency, observability, and security.
• Ability to articulate and implement a vision while inspiring our large developer community to join forces.
• A commitment to growing and mentoring talent with the goal of building a world class development culture.
• Ability to work independently with minimal supervision to design and produce high quality technical deliverables.
