  • Experience with Python (for scripting and understanding application code)
  • Experience with Redis administration
  • Experience with Celery or background task queue infrastructure
  • Experience with monitoring tools (Datadog, CloudWatch, Prometheus/Grafana)
  • Experience with cost optimization on AWS

Nice-to-have Skills:
