Experience with Kubernetes and modern cloud-native architectures

Solid understanding of at least one public cloud provider (AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud)
Really comfortable in a fast-moving startup environment

Willing to experiment, iterate quickly, and occasionally throw code away

Comfortable discussing technical problems directly with customers

Curious enough to research unfamiliar cloud services and quickly turn that knowledge into product features

Experience building production software, not just operating infrastructure
