- Experience with infrastructure as code (AWS CDK, CloudFormation, or similar) and CI/CD pipelines, preferably Azure DevOps.
- Experience implementing observability (logging, metrics, tracing, alerting) and troubleshooting distributed applications and production issues.
- Experience with automated testing, source control, code review, and Agile delivery in cross-functional teams.
