Strong cloud architecture experience
Experience with CI/CD and modern software delivery practices
Strong understanding of web security, privacy, RBAC, SSO/identity and observability
Experience with large-scale automated and manual content migrations
Experience working with UX, content and design-system teams rather than operating solely as a backend architect
Strong client-facing communication and technical leadership skills
