- Ensure that our cloud infrastructure is compliant with relevant security and regulatory standards.

- Strong experience in at least one programming/scripting language such as Python, Bash, Java, or Go.
- Experience with containerization technologies such as Docker and Kubernetes.
- Experience collaborating with network and application security teams; ability to make sound security-informed judgments is a plus.
- Comfortable leveraging AI tools to accelerate work. The company provides access to Claude, and integrates Copilot and Gemini into automation workflows; we expect engineers to use these effectively and look for opportunities to apply them.
- Ability to work in a 24/7 on call rotation.
Nice to Haves:- Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and Git.
- Collaboration experience with Data Engineering teams.
