  • Bachelor’s degree in computer science, Information Technology, or a related field (or equivalent experience)
  • Relevant experience in cloud engineering, with a focus on public cloud environments (AWS)
  • Strong hands-on experience with AWS core services: EC2, S3, RDS, Lambda, VPC, CloudWatch, and IAM
  • Experience with multi-cloud or hybrid cloud architecture
  • Expert-level proficiency with Kubernetes, including the orchestration of containers in production environments
