Why This Hire Matters

Education companies need to balance pedagogical effectiveness with technology scalability and accessibility. Infrastructure engineers are in a transition period — those who've embraced IaC and cloud-native patterns are far more valuable than those still managing physical servers. Chennai's talent market is more relationship-driven than Bangalore's — referrals and network-based hiring outperform cold outreach significantly the difference between a great lead and an average one multiplies across every team member they influence — this is the highest-leverage individual contributor hire
