• Strong Linux and networking fundamentals with hands‑on AWS or Azure, Git, Terraform, Docker, CI/CD and Kubernetes exposure.
• Ability to automate tasks using Bash, Python or a similar scripting language.
• Understanding of IAM, cloud security, monitoring, logging, backup, resilience and cost‑aware cloud design.
