Expertise in cloud infrastructure platforms, including AWS, Google Cloud Platform (GCP), or Azure

Value efficiency in processes and operations

Possess a customer-focused mindset

Responsibilities

Operate and improve the multi-tenant Kubernetes infrastructure that runs customer workloads

Build for reliability, making services and infrastructure available, resilient, fault-tolerant, and self-healing
