• 1-2 years of hands-on GCP experience (BigQuery, PostgreSQL, Cloud Storage/Functions) and experience with RDBMS (e.g., DB2).
• Strong understanding of modern automation frameworks and Gen AI tooling (Agentic AI, workflows, and cloud integration).
• Familiarity with Agile/Waterfall/PDO methodologies and experience with IT testing environments (regression and automated validation).
• Strong analytical, communication, and independent problem-solving skills, with a proactive, curious mindset and a quick capacity to learn.

Even better, you'll have...

• A Master's degree.
• Experience integrating or automating processes involving legacy mainframe systems.
