Required Qualifications
• Strong, hands-on experience with Kubernetes and container orchestration in production environments.
• Expertise in containerization technologies (e.g., Docker) and related tooling.
• Strong understanding of hyperscaler architecture and native services on AWS, GCP, and/or Azure (networking, security, IAM, storage, compute, and managed services).
