3. Cloud Expertise: Proficient with AWS (RDS / Aurora) or GCP (Cloud SQL); experience with elastic scaling and HA configurations.

5. Observability: Hands-on experience with monitoring tools (Prometheus / Grafana / Zabbix).
6. Language & Soft Skills: Working proficiency in English for cross-team collaboration. Strong root-cause analysis and postmortem skills.
7. Work Authorization: Must be legally authorized to work in the United States. We welcome all applicants legally authorized to work in the United States regardless of immigration status. The company is eligible and willing to sponsor H-1B work visas for qualified international candidates, including H-1B transfer applications.
