• Experience contributing to open-source projects is a plus, but not required.
• Practical experience building systems on a public cloud infrastructure (AWS, GCP, etc.).
• Strong ability to work effectively in a globally distributed team, demonstrating self-discipline and self-motivation to meet deadlines.
• Business traveling up to ~10%.
• Work from the office on a hybrid schedule according to company policy.
