  • Strong working knowledge of Azure and Docker within modern cloud ecosystems.
  • Strong DevSecOps background, including pipelines, quality gates and tools for code coverage, testing, SAST and DAST.
  • Track record of resolving cross-team challenges through open and constructive conversation.

Conditions
