• Demonstrated hands‑on understanding of enterprise storage concepts and troubleshooting methodology.

Technical Skills

• Storage: Strong working knowledge of SAN and NAS environments (protocols - FC, iSCSI, NFS, and CIFS/SMB), including RAID, high availability, controller architecture, disk behaviour, and failover concepts.
• OS: Good working knowledge of Linux and Windows administration fundamentals.
• Virtualization: Familiarity with VMware or similar virtualization platforms and their integration with storage.
• Networking: Good grounding in TCP/IP, DNS, routing, switching, and connectivity troubleshooting.
• Diagnostics: Ability to analyze logs, alerts, symptoms, and customer‑reported behaviour to isolate the root cause or likely fault domain.

Preferred Skills

• Experience supporting enterprise storage platforms such as NetApp ONTAP, FAS / AFF controllers, StorageGRID, E‑Series, or equivalent (Dell EMC, HPE, Pure, IBM, Hitachi).
• Prior experience in managed service or enterprise support environments handling platform or infrastructure incidents.

How You Work

• You communicate clearly, written and verbal and can hold your own during high‑pressure customer conversations.
• You set expectations well and follow through, even when resolution timelines are uncertain.

• You take ownership seriously and don't pass problems without context.
• You work well with distributed, cross‑functional teams across time zones.
