• Strong Terraform experience, including module design, infrastructure CI/CD, policy enforcement, production applies, and safe self-service workflows

• Proficiency in one or more programming languages used for infrastructure tooling and automation, such as Go, Python, TypeScript, or similar
• AWS experience, ideally including EKS, IAM, VPC networking, load balancing, Route 53, CloudFront, ECR, and related service infrastructure
