- Superior troubleshooting skills, strong collaboration abilities, and the capability to articulate complex technical ideas clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences.

- Unwavering commitment to strict security protocols and DevSecOps best practices.

**Additional Core Technical Skills Required**

- Advanced Kubernetes orchestration security, admission controllers, runtime security monitoring, and pod security standards.

- Hands-on implementation of enterprise secrets managers for automated secret rotation and dynamic injection.

- Deep experience implementing GitOps operational models using tools such as ArgoCD or Flux.
