  • Good understanding of AWS cloud technologies and deployment strategies (Gitlab pipelines, CloudFormation is a bonus)
  • Worked with Serverless paradigm and believes it's the future
  • Collaborative, willing to constantly learn and an attitude to "leave things better than you found them"

Benefits

  • Be part of a mission-driven, venture-backed startup solving real world problems
