Cloud before tools
Most recruiters search AWS, Azure or GCP first. Lead with yours, and let Kubernetes and Terraform follow.
Cost and time
Cloud bill saved and deploy time cut are two figures every engineering head tracks.
On-call is a signal
Mentioning on-call or incident work tells a hiring team you have handled real production pressure.
