Formación

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical field.
• 3–5+ years of experience in infrastructure, platform, DevOps, or SRE roles, supporting data-intensive systems.
• Strong experience with AWS or GCP, Kubernetes, and infrastructure-as-code (Terraform or similar).
• Strong programming skills in Python, Go, or similar for automation and tooling.
• Experience operating production systems: monitoring, incident response, and capacity planning.
• Working knowledge of data infrastructure components (warehouses, object storage, streaming systems, orchestrators).

• Provision and tune infra for heavy workloads: large-scale sensor data processing and ML training/evaluation.
• Own platform reliability: SLAs/SLOs, on-call, incident response, and capacity planning.
• Implement security and governance: IAM, secrets management, encryption, audit logging, environment isolation.
• Own cloud cost management: monitoring, budgeting, optimization across storage and compute.
• Build observability stack (metrics, logging, tracing) for data platform services.
