  • Work to drive decisions through a crisp decision-making process and framework
  • Analyze criteria and options and obtain necessary data to answer key questions

  • Minimum of 3 years of related experience with a Bachelor’s degree; or 1 year and a Master’s degree; or a Ph.D. without experience; or equivalent work experience
  • Basic knowledge of development & deployment across multiple cloud providers such as Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud, VMWare and OpenStack
  • Coding experience in languages such as Golang, Java, or C#
  • Working knowledge of micro-service architectures & large-scale API design and development
  • Understanding of service mesh frameworks (Istio), container systems (Docker), and orchestration platforms (ECS, Kubernetes, Mesos and/or Swarm)
  • Experience in developing solutions using automation tools such as Ansible, Chief, Puppet, System Center
  • Working knowledge of Relational and NoSQL databases
  • Operating System knowledge of Linux, OS Processes, Threads, Scheduling, Synchronization, Memory Management, and Input/Output device management
  • Able to collaborate and thrive in a dynamic high performing environment
  • Demonstrated excellence in written and verbal communications
