• Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to explain complex concepts to non-technical audiences
• Extensive knowledge of cloud pricing models, cost structures, and cost optimization techniques
• Ability to work effectively in cross-functional teams (on the junction of research-product-dev)

Advantages:

• Published technical research artifacts (white papers / blog posts / OSS / etc.)
• Experience in Go
