• Comfortable scripting in Python, Bash, or similar.
• Curiosity about applying AI tooling (e.g. AI coding assistants, AI-assisted testing, or AI-assisted incident response) to speed up delivery and support.
• Strong troubleshooting and problem-solving skills, with a strong sense of ownership and a quality-first mindset.
