  • Balanced approach that integrates software engineering principles with modern infrastructure operations.
  • Strong communication, documentation, and teamwork skills.
  • Deep experience implementing infrastructure-as-code and CI / CD best practices, with a strong understanding of Git patterns such as GitFlow and trunk-based development; monorepo vs. polyrepo strategies; and workflows including code reviews, automated testing, and security automation.
  • Extensive experience managing AWS Organizations, accounts, networking components, and cloud-native services.
  • Hands-on experience with containerized solutions leveraging Docker.
  • Strong knowledge of cloud security best practices, shift-left methodologies, and DevSecOps processes.
  • Experience in using and integrating AI tools into enterprise software development pipelines.
