  • Continuously learn cloud, Kubernetes, and SRE best practices and apply them to daily work
  • Take ownership of assigned tasks and communicate progress, blockers, and learnings clearly

  • Familiarity with Linux and shell scripting; exposure to Windows/PowerShell a plus
  • Comfortable using Git for branching, pull requests, and merges
  • Strong troubleshooting curiosity and willingness to dig into unfamiliar systems
  • Willingness to participate in an on-call rotation
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills
  • Growth mindset — actively seeks feedback and continuously improves
  • High level of personal ownership, accountability, and drive

Preferred Skills:

  • Entry-level cloud certification (AWS Cloud Practitioner, Developer Associate, or SysOps Associate; Azure Fundamentals)
