What You'll Bring:
- 6+ years of experience as a Software Engineer with a strong focus on cloud technologies and architecture.
- Experience with cloud platforms such as AWS, Azure, or GCP. We are on AWS.
- Solid understanding of cloud architecture principles, microservices, containers, serverless computing and Network stack.
- Hands-on experience with CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure as code (IaC), and configuration management tools (e.g., Terraform, Ansible, Kubernetes).
- Strong coding and debugging abilities, with advanced knowledge in at least one programming language (Python/Go/JavaScript/Java/Kotiln/Rust/…) and a willingness to learn more.
- Strong problem-solving skills, excellent communication abilities, and a collaborative mindset.
- Experience in IoT is a plus.
What Values You'll Share:
