• Strong understanding of web technologies, HTTP, APIs, networking, cloud architecture, CDNs, reverse proxies, and modern application infrastructure.
• Ability to translate complex technical concepts into clear business value for both technical and non-technical audiences.
• Strong consultative selling skills and experience handling technical, security, and business objections.
• Excellent written, verbal, and presentation skills, including the ability to communicate with senior technical and executive stakeholders.
