  • Development experience in a cloud service environment such as Amazon AWS, MS Azure, and Google Cloud Platform, as well as on-premise Kubernetes clusters in highly secure environments.
  • Hands-on experience programming in Python, Java, C++, Go, Rust, or other programming languages.
  • Ability to anticipate problems, identify risks, see around corners, and scope large projects.
  • Ability to translate informal customer requirements into technical problem definitions, dealing with ambiguity and competing objectives.
  • Experience partnering with product or program management teams.
Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience communicating with users, other technical teams, and senior leadership to collect requirements and describe software product features, technical designs, and product strategy.
