• Experience with emerging cloud, AI, and data platforms; experience with Microsoft Azure, Microsoft Foundry, and Microsoft Fabric preferred.
• Ability to act as both a technical leader and hands‑on contributor.
• Experience working across teams to establish shared platforms, standards, or engineering practices.
• Experience working closely with business stakeholders and product managers to align technical solutions with strategic objectives.
• Comfortable operating in a small team environment where priorities evolve and individuals wear multiple hats.
