  • Additional skills that you might also bring

  • Experience with container tech such as LXD, Docker, and Kubernetes
  • Understanding of build systems and toolchains
  • Experience with cross‑compilation
  • Experience with hyperscale public clouds and / or private clouds
  • Experience with designing, building, and running distributed systems
