- Maintain a strict quality bar on correctness and reproducibility

- Share structured feedback that improves future task design

Required qualifications

- 3+ years of professional experience in DevOps, SRE, Platform, or Infrastructure engineering

- Strong coding ability in Python, Go, Bash, or TypeScript (this role needs real code, not scripts alone)

- Infrastructure as Code experience (Terraform, Ansible, Pulumi, or CloudFormation)

- Advanced Linux and Git

- Professional English, written and spoken

- Availability of at least 20 hours per week

Preferred qualifications
