  • 3+ years experience with a systems programming language such as Rust
  • Proficient in Git source version-control
  • Thorough knowledge of Docker and experience with Terraform
  • Passion for improving process and products
  • Experience configuring Continuous Integration (CI)
  • Ability to thrive while working independently and remotely in a team-based environment
  • Experience with monitoring and alerting (primarily with Prometheus / Grafana) and knowledge of best practices in the area
  • Self-starter with the ability to context-switch between various projects, codebases, and concepts
  • Ability to independently debug problems involving the network and operating system
  • Well-versed in scripting languages (e.g., Bash and/or Python) and building and administration of Linux
  • Interest in security and a thoughtful consideration of the security implications of development decisions
