• Proficiency with observability and monitoring platforms (Grafana, ELK, VictoriaMetrics, DataDog).
• Programming experience in one or more languages such as Python, Go, or JavaScript.
• Strong understanding of infrastructure architecture principles — scalability, redundancy, fault tolerance, and cost optimization.
• Familiarity with containerization (Docker, Kubernetes) and networking fundamentals across cloud and datacenter environments.
• Excellent communication and documentation skills to facilitate alignment across cross-functional engineering teams.

Nice to Have
