• Proficiency in Python, Bash, and SQL.
• Experience building and maintaining CI/CD pipelines using AWS-native or common third-party tools (e.g., GitLab, GitHub Actions, Jenkins).
• Working knowledge of containerization and orchestration technologies such as Docker and Kubernetes (EKS) or ECS.
• Solid understanding of networking fundamentals and cloud security best practices.
• Programming background in Golang and/or TypeScript is a plus.
