  • Eagerness to learn from team, grow your knowledge, and teach your colleagues.
  • Ability to provide after-hours (on-call/weekend rotational) support as required to address critical incidents and maintain continuous coverage.

Requirements

  • Expertise in all these areas is not required, but you should be excited by the opportunity to learn new things and comfortable with working with other team members to expand your knowledge base and experience.
