• Seek solutions and new approaches to existing and new problems.

• Proficiency in multiple programming languages, with a focus on clean, efficient code.

• Familiarity with at least one scripting language (e.g. Python, Perl, Ruby, Bash).
• Passion for open-source contributions and community-driven projects.
• Strong problem-solving skills and a collaborative, proactive mindset.
• Knowledge and understanding of Linux/Unix.
• Proficient with git and git workflows.
• Comfortable with working on multiple projects, using different languages, and switching between them on a daily basis.
• Self-directed, ambitious, and eager to learn new skills and technologies.

GREAT ADVANTAGE WILL BE::
• Prior contributions to well-known open-source projects.
• Personal projects that you have worked on and you can show us.
• Experience with cloud services and containerization technologies.
• Experience with large-scale systems or service development.
• Familiarity with web hosting technologies or infrastructure automation.
• Experience with major AI service providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google Vertex).Experience with Go or Python.
