  • Optimize your team’s development, and delivery experience, so you and your team can be as productive as possible and regularly deploy to production. 
  • As necessary, develop infrastructure as code using CDK/Terraform so you can use more AWS. 
  • Responsible and dependable to take on challenging tasks with minimal supervision
  • Work in a collaborative environment where you regularly pair, plan, and execute tasks as a team and strive to optimize your team’s Lead Time, Deployment Frequency, Mean-time-to-recovery, and Change Failure Rate.
  • Involve in continuous improvement of processes by regularly making improvement recommendations at team retrospectives
  • Independently manage your tasks in JIRA without Manager's involvement. 

What you need to succeed

  • Understanding of event-driven microservices architecture.
