Bonus Skills - Experience with cloud and SaaS platforms, including AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform. - Strong working knowledge of Linux and Windows operating systems, including administration, troubleshooting, and performance considerations in enterprise deployments. - Solid understanding of networking fundamentals and architectures, including TCP/IP, DNS, routing, firewalls, load balancing, and network security concepts as they relate to data protection and recovery. - Hands-on experience across enterprise infrastructure domains such as virtualization platforms (VMware vSphere, Microsoft Hyper-V, Nutanix AHV), enterprise storage platforms, identity and access management, and Kubernetes-based environments commonly found in modern hybrid and multi-cloud architectures. - Prior experience with data protection, cyber resilience, or enterprise infrastructure vendors. - Relevant technical or industry certifications (cloud, security, architecture). - Observability, monitoring, and operational tooling that supports resilience and recovery workflows. - Containerized and cloud-native application platforms, including Kubernetes data protection and recovery considerations. - SaaS application data resilience (e.g., Microsoft 365, Salesforce, and other enterprise SaaS services). - API-driven automation, scripting, and infrastructure-as-code concepts. - Cyber recovery and clean-room architectures. - Data governance, classification, and policy-driven protection models.
