• Hands‑on familiarity with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure), hybrid infrastructure, networking, disaster recovery, and modern integration patterns.
• Demonstrated ability to lead IT strategy, budget management, vendor negotiations, and large‑scale projects/migrations.
• Exceptional leadership skills with experience building and mentoring teams in fast‑paced, growth‑oriented organizations.
