-
Collaborate closely with backend, mobile, and security engineers to ensure infrastructure supports product velocity and compliance requirements
-
Lead incident response, post-mortems, and drive improvements to system reliability and uptime

Comfort working in a Linux/Unix environment with strong any scripting skills.
