- Experience: 3-5 years of industry experience in a technical role.
- Strong technical foundation in at least two of the following: databases, distributed systems, cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure), Linux/Unix administration, or programming/scripting (Python, Bash, Java, etc.).
- Excellent problem-solving and analytical skills, with the ability to learn new systems quickly.
- Strong communication skills — both written and verbal — to interact effectively with technical and non-technical audiences.
- Proactive, customer-first mindset, with patience and persistence when resolving issues.
- Ability to work independently in a fully remote environment while collaborating across global teams.
