Strong communication skills, with the ability to collaborate across teams and influence decisions
Experience designing systems and clearly communicating architecture, such as diagrams and design docs
Experience with SQL databases such as Postgres or MySQL
Experience working with CI/CD tools such as CircleCI in cloud-native environments (AWS, GCP, or Azure)
Ability to balance technical excellence with product thinking and customer needs
Experience with security best practices across the full stack, including API controls (rate limiting, auth), Kubernetes (RBAC, Kyverno/OPA), secrets management, and container security
Experience using AI-assisted development tools (e.g., code generation, debugging, or productivity tools) to improve engineering velocity
Experience with Apache Airflow or similar workflow orchestration tools
Experience building highly available, scalable systems, such as scale testing, disaster recovery, or capacity planning
Familiarity with observability tools like Prometheus, Grafana, or ELK
Experience with OpenShift or Red Hat ecosystems
You’ll work on features customers see and use every day, not just behind-the-scenes systems
You’ll work on the control plane that helps enterprises orchestrate and manage Airflow environments at scale
You’ll operate at the intersection of product, platform, and user experience
You’ll help simplify complex infrastructure into intuitive, powerful workflows
You’ll work in an engineering culture that embraces AI-assisted development tools and workflows to improve productivity and accelerate delivery
