  • Soft Skills & Mindset: Superior troubleshooting skills, strong collaboration abilities, and the capability to articulate complex technical ideas clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences.
  • Security Discipline: Unwavering commitment to strict security protocols and DevSecOps best practices.

Additional Core Technical Skills Required:

  • Container Security & Governance: Advanced Kubernetes orchestration security, admission controllers (e.g., Open Policy Agent/OPA, Kyverno), runtime security monitoring (e.g., Falco), and pod security standards.
  • Secrets Management: Hands-on implementation of enterprise secrets managers (e.g., HashiCorp Vault, AWS Secrets Manager) for automated secret rotation and dynamic injection.
  • GitOps & Modern Continuous Delivery: Deep experience implementing GitOps operational models using tools such as ArgoCD or Flux.
  • Full-Stack Observability & Telemetry: Experience deploying end-to-end monitoring, centralized logging, and metrics stacks (e.g., Prometheus, Grafana, ELK/OpenSearch, OpenTelemetry).

Desired Qualifications:

  • Programming & Scripting: Proficiency in languages such as Python, Go, Bash, or C/C++.
  • Containerization: Strong practical experience with containerized software practices (Docker, Podman).
  • Agile Frameworks: Experience working within Agile/Scrum software development methodologies.
  • Cloud Architecture: Multi-cloud infrastructure experience across AWS, Azure, or GCP.
  • Security Scanning Tooling: Hands-on experience with modern scanner suites (e.g., SonarQube, Snyk, Trivy, OWASP ZAP).

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
