- Assist in triaging production incidents, debugging errors, and learning how to perform Root Cause Analysis (RCA).
- Help monitor build and release pipelines to ensure the successful deployment of our applications.
- Receive mentorship from senior engineers on best practices for code reviews, infrastructure management, and cloud technologies.
What You Need to Succeed
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent practical experience (Bootcamps and self‑taught developers welcome).

- Comfortable using the command line (Bash) and understanding basic file systems and permissions.
- Foundational coding proficiency in at least one language: Python (preferred for automation), Java, or Go.
- Basic familiarity with Git (committing, pushing, pulling).
- Exposure to configuration management tools like Ansible.
