• Hands-on experience with Docker and Kubernetes, including EKS or comparable managed Kubernetes services.
• Strong understanding of CI/CD principles and experience building or maintaining delivery pipelines.
• Experience designing cloud-native environments for high availability, fault tolerance, and cost optimization.
• Strong communication skills and the ability to explain complex infrastructure topics to technical and non-technical stakeholders.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with configuration-management tools such as Ansible or Puppet.
• Familiarity with observability platforms such as Datadog, Grafana, Prometheus, Checkmk, or equivalent.
• Knowledge of service mesh or advanced networking patterns such as AWS Transit Gateway, PrivateLink, or GCP VPC peering.
• Experience in gaming, media, or another high-throughput or latency-sensitive industry.
• Experience with cloud cost-management tooling or FinOps practices in large AWS environments.
