● In-depth knowledge of cloud technology and the ability to choose the right tool for the job is essential, such as serverless functions vs. containerized services; relational vs. NoSQL databases; appropriate use of caches and queues; etc.
● Demonstrated ability and desire to learn new technologies
● Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science or a related field, or equivalent work experience
