Support other team members, participate in design discussions and collaborate with the team
Learn new skills by gaining a deeper understanding of our cloud product and our customers and getting to know the codebase of a large distributed system

Some experience with developing software that runs in the Cloud or some experience with systems engineering
Some experience with being on-call and following the DevOps model
