- Foundational knowledge of networking fundamentals and operations architecture to support IT service management (ITSM) automation and distributed system reliability.
- Familiarity with relational databases such as Snowflake or other RDBMS platforms, with an understanding of data reliability, availability, and consistency requirements in analytics and ML environments.
Nice to Have
- Knowledge of NIST 800-171
- Working in Agile / a consultative mindset – we function as an agile team, which places a responsibility and accountability on developers to take ownership of their work.
- We agree on acceptance criteria as a goal, and work to find the best ways to implement a solution which meets those criteria. Seldom do our stories define precisely how to build a solution giving space for engineers to design together and implement the best possible solutions
- A mind for resilience – not necessarily a security engineer, but someone keen on establishing best practices, following those practices, and fostering adoption of those practices at all levels
- Exceptional Communication and collaboration skills – we never work alone, and often work with customers across DS&A and the Enterprise.
