You are adept at using Docker both for containerization during development, as well as for production. You have experience designing CI/CD pipelines and container orchestration.
You are curious about the latest developments in Gen AI and enthusiastic about prototyping innovative solutions. You stay informed about industry trends and evaluate new technologies for team adoption.
You thrive at solving coding problems without relying on AI. You are seen as a problem‑solver for the toughest engineering challenges.
You’ve worked closely in teams of ~5 engineers before, solving hard problems collaboratively, and working tightly with your immediate peers as well as across teams. You have mentored and onboarded junior engineers.
You are comfortable providing clear code reviews and mentorship to junior engineers. You foster a culture of technical excellence and continuous learning.
You thrive in an agile environment. You help refine processes to improve team effectiveness.
