Background building and operating cloud or data infrastructure, with experience in CI/CD, observability, security, and access control.

Experience designing database infrastructure for relational and NoSQL systems at scale.

Comfort making architectural decisions and building from scratch in an early-stage or high-growth environment, with a stable employment history.
