• Team-based experience in Cloud or DevOps environments, working within Agile frameworks like Scrum, Kanban, or Lean.
• Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines using tools such as Azure DevOps and GitHub Actions, and provisioning frameworks like ARM templates or Terraform.
• Hands‑on exposure to DevOps tooling (automation, orchestration, testing), with awareness of Jenkins or GitLab, and security tools like HashiCorp Vault.
• Strong communicator, able to translate technical complexity into clear insights for both technical and business audiences, while continuously learning and applying new knowledge effectively.
• Broader exposure to cloud platforms and native deployment tools, plus certifications in GitLab, Terraform, or Vault would be a bonus (desirable).
• Current certifications such as AZ‑104, AZ‑400, or Terraform Associate reflect highly sought‑after competencies (desirable).
