  • Hands‑on experience with Kubernetes/EKS. •
  • Strong skills in SQL (read/write) and experience working with RDS MySQL/Postgres. •
  • Experience with platform upgrades, cloud migrations, or large‑scale infrastructure improvements.
  • Understanding of AI-native software development practices, including automated code generation, AI-driven testing, and human-in-the-loop review systems
  • Proven ability to adopt and drive modern engineering paradigms, particularly integrating AI into development workflows to improve productivity, quality, and delivery speed

Bonus Requirements:

  • Experience working with Hadoop ecosystem infrastructure (e.g., Hadoop, Hive, Presto). •
  • Knowledge of cloud security best practices.

Full-time employees can take advantage of health coverage, paid parental leave, generous paid time-off and holidays, quarterly self-care days off, and stock options. We’ll make sure you have the equipment and support you need to work and connect with your teams, at home or in one of our offices.
