• Resource Provisioning: Deep familiarity with modern Infrastructure-as-Code and provisioning tools such as Terraform, Pulumi, or Crossplane.
• Workload Scheduling: Hands-on experience building or managing large-scale orchestrators for compute-heavy workloads (e.g., Kubernetes, KubeRay, Ray, Slurm, or Volcano).
• Distributed Data Processing: Proficiency in at least one distributed processing framework, such as Apache Spark or Apache Beam, for large-scale data extraction and transformation.
• Feature Management: Experience implementing or maintaining feature stores and caching layers (e.g., Feast, Hopsworks, or Redis-based custom caching).
• Systems Design: A strong understanding of distributed systems, networking, and storage bottlenecks in the context of high-performance computing.
