* You automate everything: You’re fluent in infrastructure-as-code (we use Terraform, but we welcome experience with others).

* You lift others up: You mentor, guide, and improve collaboration across the team.
* You’re curious and collaborative: You love diving into unfamiliar territory, solving challenges creatively, and connecting short-term actions to long-term goals.
