• AI-First Mindset: Active experience using AI coding assistants (e.g., GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Claude/ChatGPT, Amazon Q Developer) to boost coding velocity, debug configuration errors, and draft documentation.
• Strong networking fundamentals (VPCs, Subnets, Transit Gateways, Route53, VPNs, ALB/NLBs) and AWS security fundamentals (IAM roles, SCPs, KMS, Security Hub).
• Solid hands-on experience with container ecosystems (Docker, Kubernetes/EKS, or ECS).
• Proficiency in at least one scripting or automation language (Python, Bash, or Go).
• Experience with CI/CD automation and GitOps principles., * Relevant AWS certifications (e.g., AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Professional or DevOps Engineer - Professional).
