• Problem-solve issues based on business/customer need and impact, working with technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Teach others: One of the most meaningful tasks of a Senior Engineer is improving the knowledge level of the team members.
• You will flourish working in a hyper-growth environment where the next project is ready to be picked up.

• Experience with Docker, and containers.
• DevOps experience in cloud infrastructure management with tools like Terraform, AWS CDK, Serverless, and Ansible.
• Practical and theoretical knowledge of development patterns, software architectures and design patterns (TDD, Event-Driven, SOLID, Hexagonal, DDD).
• Experience with microservices and highly distributed cloud based systems.
• Knowledge of (cloud) infrastructure principles (load balancing, high availability, containerized services, database configurations, security) is a must.
• Strong verbal and written communication skills in English.
• Ability to teach others and help them grow.
