Resilient problem solver who can do what it takes to serve peers and the Gusto customer base.
Effective communicator who can simplify complex topics and persuade.
Potentially Relevant Experience

Strong experience with Docker and Kubernetes.
Experience with cloud platforms like AWS (preferred), GCP, or Azure and related IaaS tools such as Terraform (preferred).
Experience leading incident remediation for complex systems.
