• Proficiency in scripting languages including Python, Bash, and Perl for automation and systems management.
• Experience with automation and configuration management tools such as Ansible.
• Familiarity with ASIC EDA tools (Cadence, Synopsys, Mentor) and Flexera Licensing.
• Experience managing NFS servers, Linux patching (yum, RPMs), LDAP authentication, and system hardening tools (SaltStack, VMware Aria, or similar).
• Experience with incident and change management platforms such as ServiceNow, including provisioning and decommissioning workflows.

Knowledge and Skills

• Strong communication and collaboration skills with the ability to work effectively across cross‑functional teams including ASIC engineers, infrastructure teams, and management.
