WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR:

  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, or a related field.
  • Relevant certifications in cloud technologies, architecture frameworks, or related areas are a plus.
  • Strong leadership skills with the ability to influence and guide cross-functional teams.
