• Apply security, privacy, and least-privilege principles across application and infrastructure work.
• Participate in technical design, estimation, code reviews, and incremental delivery.
• Collaborate with Product, Test Engineering, Support, and CloudOps to resolve dependencies and deliver complete solutions.

• Working knowledge of relational database design, SQL, and performance troubleshooting.
• Hands-on experience with AWS services such as ECS, Lambda, S3, SQS, SNS, CloudFront, DynamoDB, Secrets Manager, IAM, and CloudWatch, and understanding of cloud architecture, security, and high availability.
• Experience with infrastructure as code (AWS CDK, CloudFormation, or similar) and CI/CD pipelines, preferably Azure DevOps.
• Experience implementing observability (logging, metrics, tracing, alerting) and troubleshooting distributed applications and production issues.
• Experience with automated testing, source control, code review, and Agile delivery in cross-functional teams.
• Strong communication, collaboration, and technical documentation skills.
