  • You have excellent communication skills and a product oriented mindset.
  • You feel comfortable mentoring your colleagues and helping them grow their technical skills.

  • You engage with your team and all the engineering group actively, sharing knowledge and best practices in order to improve with them every day.
  • Strong experience in AWS, Terraform/Terragrunt and Golang are a big plus
