• Knowledge of cloud security, monitoring and operational support, including incident management, observability and production environment troubleshooting.
• Experience working with Kubernetes, DevOps tooling and modern application delivery practices to support scalable and reliable platforms.
• Ability to work collaboratively across engineering, architecture and security teams, with strong communication and problem-solving skills.
• Experience supporting managed cloud services, including application onboarding, operational readiness, platform support and continuous improvement initiatives.
• Familiarity with enterprise tooling such as ServiceNow, Jenkins, Bitbucket, CyberArk and monitoring platforms such as Splunk, Elastic or AppDynamics.
