• Automation: Eliminate repetitive manual tasks for engineering teams, utilising AI tools where you can.
• Production Support: Guide squads on managing their own apps using metrics, logs, and SLOs.

• AWS & Terraform: Hands-on experience (specifically ECS Fargate, RDS, Lambda, or EventBridge).
• CI/CD & Observability: Strong understanding of deployment pipelines and system monitoring.
• Modern Tools: Interest in using AI tools in daily software engineering.
• Codebases: Comfortable working with application code in Ruby or Python and navigating ambiguous problems.
