• Hold certifications in Kubernetes (CKA, CKAD) or cloud platforms are ideal.
• Have a background in software development or system administration is a bonus.
• Can show hands-on Kubernetes experience with the ability to troubleshoot deployments, configure networking, and advise on security best practices.
• Can prove experience with GitOps implementation experience using tools like Codefresh, ArgoCD, Flux, or similar, with a track record of helping teams adopt these practices successfully.
• Demonstrate problem-solving skills where you've diagnosed complex technical issues and guided customers to resolution.
• Prefer a self-directed work style with proven ability to manage multiple customer relationships simultaneously while maintaining high service standards.
• Exhibit a continuous learning mindset with examples of how you stay current with rapidly evolving DevOps tooling and practices.
