  • Strong proficiency with containerization technologies such as Docker and Kubernetes.
  • Strong proficiency with infrastructure-as-code (IaC) tools like Terraform or CloudFormation.
  • Proficiency in scripting languages such as Python, Bash, or PowerShell.

  • Experience with observability and incident management platforms such as Prometheus, Grafana, CloudWatch, ELK, PagerDuty, or similar tools.
  • Experience with secure cloud operations, least-privilege IAM, secrets management, vulnerability remediation, and audit-ready infrastructure.
  • Experience supporting government, regulated, or compliance-driven environments.
  • Practical experience using AI-assisted development or automation tools to improve engineering workflows, with a clear understanding of validation, review, privacy, and security considerations.
