  • You have solved multiple problems by writing code to automate your way out of them and have a passion for replacing manual processes time and time again with your code
    
  • You have been responsible for running critical services that multiple customers depend upon. You understand the importance and impact that operational optimization can have on a product and the positive ripple effects that it can have across an entire organization
