The ideal candidate must be detail-oriented, possess excellent verbal and written communication skills, have strong organizational abilities, multitask effectively, work independently, and maintain professionalism under pressure. You should have expert knowledge of large-scale distributed system design and engineering best practices, be proactive in identifying potential problems, and implement solutions to detect and prevent outages. Ability to prioritize projects, make sound judgments, improve customer experience, and focus on key objectives is essential.
