  • Familiarity with monitoring and logging tools (Prometheus, Grafana, ELK, or GCP Cloud Monitoring/Logging).
  • Understanding of distributed systems design and global traffic management.
  • Awareness of security and compliance best practices in a cloud-native environment.

What We Offer

  • A collaborative environment with mentorship opportunities.
  • Exposure to large-scale, multiregion, and multicloud infrastructure challenges.
