Also written as IaC

Managing servers and cloud resources by writing configuration files (code) instead of manually clicking through a console, so infrastructure is versioned and repeatable.

Think of it like

Like writing down your office floor plan as a document you can hand to any contractor to rebuild identically, instead of describing it from memory each time.

Junior or senior?

Junior sounds like

Still makes infrastructure changes by clicking through a console.

Senior sounds like

Can name a change they made through code that they remember used to be a manual click.

Ask them

“What's an infrastructure change you made through code that you remember used to be a manual console click?”
