• 8+ years experience as a software engineer in a team environment
• Strong programming experience in Python for web development
• Experience with cloud-native software development in at least one major cloud provider (AWS, GCP, Azure) using containers
• Excellent communication and presentation skills
• Excited to work in a fast-paced environment with new opportunities each week

• Experience with the AWS / Govcloud ecosystem
• Experience managing CI/CD in cloud-based development, staging, and production environments
• Have a passion for simple architectures and clean APIs
