- Proven ability to build and maintain secure automated CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions.
- A pragmatic mindset you care about elegant solutions but not at the cost of delivery.
- A strong belief in automation DRY code and version-controlled infrastructure.
- Comfort collaborating across diverse teams and working directly with developers.
- An understanding of governance compliance and auditable infrastructure.
Bonus Skills
