  • Automation & CI/CD: Demonstrated ability to set up and maintain CI/CD pipelines, automated tests, and load testing for robust production deployments
  • Engineering Best Practices: Committed to writing clean, maintainable, and testable code, with an emphasis on performance and scalability
  • Strong Communicator: Comfortable discussing complex technical concepts with non-technical team members and collaborating with diverse teams
