Nice to have:

  • Experience with event-driven architectures, serverless computing (Lambda, Azure Functions), and modern application patterns
  • Familiarity with observability tools (Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, New Relic) and platform monitoring
  • Knowledge of service mesh technologies (Istio, Linkerd, Consul)
  • Experience with policy-as-code tools (OPA, Sentinel, Kyverno)
  • Contributions to open-source platform engineering or DevOps projects
  • Certifications: Azure Solutions Architect, AWS Solutions Architect, CKA/CKAD, or similar
