Familiarity with tools like IBM MQ Explorer, scripting languages (such as Shell or PowerShell), and certifications like IBM Certified System Administrator – MQ are highly valued. Strong problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and clear communication are essential soft skills for remote collaboration and rapid issue resolution.
