You don't just delegate – you jump in when needed You can move fast without cutting corners You're comfortable with ambiguity and figure things out as you go People like working with you because they can trust you to make smart calls Bonus Points: Familiarity with CloudFormation and Azure DevOps Experience adding AI/ML to existing products (Bedrock, OpenAI, etc.) Background in creative production, media, or SaaS Experience with Datadog AWS cost optimization experience Have most of this and are excited about the challenge?
