  • Expertise with infrastructure-as-code frameworks such as CloudFormation and CDK.
  • Experience with CI/CD pipelines and production deployment strategy across multiple platforms.
  • Solid understanding of observability best practices, including monitoring, alerting, distributed tracing, and SLI/SLO/SLA design.
  • Strong communication and collaboration skills for working with clients and cross-functional teams.
