- Infrastructure as Code (IaC): Expert proficiency in Terraform, AWS CloudFormation, or Azure Resource Manager (ARM) templates.
- Networking & Security: Deep understanding of VPC/VNet design, hybrid connectivity (VPN/Direct Connect/ExpressRoute), IAM, encryption, and compliance frameworks (SOC2, ISO 27001, GDPR).
- Modern Architecture: Proven experience with containerization (Docker, Kubernetes/EKS/AKS/GKE), microservices, CI/CD pipelines, and serverless computing.
- Soft Skills: Exceptional verbal and written communication skills. Ability to explain complex technical concepts to non-technical audiences. Strong problem-solving and leadership mindset.
