THE SKILLSET YOU'll BRING:
- You have a track record of delivering engineering projects and process improvements
- You have experience scaling cloud infrastructure
- You enjoy building and productionizing developer productivity tools, frameworks, and other aspects of platform engineering
- You have experience with inner workings of Linux, containers (Docker, containerd), and container orchestration technologies (e.g. docker-compose, Kubernetes)
- You have a track record of building productive, collaborative relationships, both within an engineering org and across the broader company
- You enjoy the ambiguity and high-ownership culture of early-stage startups
- You are pragmatic, solution-oriented, and scrappy
- You enjoy working collaboratively with a broad range of job functions and roles
