Possessing expert-level knowledge of at least one cloud provider (AWS, GCP, or Azure) is essential, encompassing their core services, networking, and security models. Exposure to the remaining two providers is also required
Strong programming skills in Java, Go, or similar languages – you're a software engineer first
Deep understanding of containerization (Docker, Kubernetes) and orchestration across cloud environments and corresponding security hardening
Experience with Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, Pulumi) for multi-cloud deployments
Proficiency with monitoring tools (Prometheus, Grafana, DataDog, New Relic) and log aggregation systems
Solid grasp of networking concepts including load balancing, CDNs, DNS, and security best practices
