• Polyglot programming capability, with advanced ability in at least one language. We expect engineers within Infrastructure to be proficient and prolific software engineers. Languages in our ecosystem include Python, Java, Go, and Bash
• Experience running critical workloads in AWS is highly valued
• An ability to balance delivery with correctness, delivering timely solutions that are properly risk-managed for the needs of the business
• A curious mind, enthusiasm for technology infrastructure, strong collaboration and communication skills, and the drive to take initiative with the right combination of independence and teamwork
