Requirements

- Deep, production-grade AWS experience and a serverless mindset.
- A builder mindset with daily AI usage: you rely on AI tools every day to simplify routine work, accelerate development, and deliver results faster (while keeping high engineering standards).
- Ability to execute end-to-end fast: architecture * implementation * code reviews * release * monitoring * iteration.
- Solid decision-making, high ownership, ability to untangle complex integrations, and a systematic approach to improving product quality.
