  • Strong debugging and troubleshooting skills across distributed systems.
  • Familiarity with GCP services such as BigQuery, IAM, and Cloud Logging is a plus.
  • Comfort working independently in a remote-first environment and communicating effectively across teams.
  • Regular use of AI-assisted development tools with sound judgment about automation versus human review.
