• Strong experience with Infrastructure as Code, such as Terraform
• Good understanding of CI/CD and automation
• Experience within security or networking
• Programming experience in Go, Python, Rust, or similar
• Ability to work independently and take ownership of tasks and solutions
• Strong communication skills and ability to collaborate across teams
