• Mentor peers on best practices: Twelve-Factor App, SOLID principles, CI/CD hygiene
• Drive documentation: architecture diagrams, runbooks, post-mortems

Preferred Qualifications

• Skilled in YAML, secret management, and automated testing pipelines
• Strong debugging mindset—root-cause analysis is non-negotiable
