Requirements

• You bring strong, hands‑on experience in enterprise cloud administration — ideally with GCP — and know how to design, operate, and scale cloud environments that real businesses depend on.
• You have solid practical experience with Kubernetes, containerisation, and virtualisation technologies such as Docker and VMware, and you're comfortable navigating complex, layered infrastructure.
• Your networking knowledge is deep and grounded — TCP/IP and related protocols are second nature to you, and you can diagnose and resolve network issues with confidence.
• You implement best practices for network security and governance, ensuring that access, segmentation, and policy controls are consistently applied and continuously improved.
• You're proficient in at least one scripting or programming language such as Python or shell, and you use code as a tool to make infrastructure smarter and more maintainable.
• You have hands‑on experience configuring and troubleshooting Google Workspace and Linux environments, and you know how to keep them healthy and secure.
• You've set up and improved monitoring and visualisation systems, and you understand how good observability translates into faster incident response and better decision‑making.
• A background in engineering or computer science is a plus — what matters most is that you bring structured thinking and hands‑on experience to make systems work together.

Core Competencies

Demonstrates expertise in enterprise cloud administration, particularly with GCP, and possesses strong skills in Kubernetes, Docker, and VMware for managing complex infrastructures. Proficient in scripting languages like Python and shell, with a focus on automation and security best practices.
