- Deep, hands-on experience authoring and maintaining production Terraform for at least one major cloud provider.
- Strong experience designing reusable Terraform modules with clean APIs and version discipline.
- Hands-on experience with Terraform state management, backends, and large-scale workspace organization.
- Strong scripting skills in Python, Go, or Bash.
- Experience with CI/CD pipelines for infrastructure code and automated policy enforcement.
- Solid understanding of cloud networking, identity, and security primitives.
- Strong Git-based workflow experience, including code review, branching, and release management.
