What You Bring

  • Solid foundation in Windows systems and Active Directory
  • Scripting/automation skills (PowerShell, Python, or similar)
  • Understanding of networking, security, and cloud architecture
  • Ability to communicate and collaborate across teams

Nice To Have

  • Experience with containers (Docker, Kubernetes, ECS/EKS)

  • AWS Certification (or working toward one)
