• Strong experience with Docker, Kubernetes, and cloud platforms such as AWS or GCP.

• Experience designing scalable data models using SQL and NoSQL databases.

• Strong understanding of CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure automation, observability, and DevOps practices.

• Demonstrated experience leading system design, architectural discussions, and delivering large engineering projects independently.

• Proven ability to mentor engineers, influence technical direction, and drive engineering best practices across teams.

• Excellent problem-solving, communication, and stakeholder management skills.
