- End-to-end technical troubleshooting and root-cause analysis expertise across multi-vendor environments, including Linux/Windows administration, cloud architectures (AWS), REST API services, virtualization (VMware, Hyper-V), and enterprise storage protocols (NFS, S3, SMB).
- In-depth understanding of enterprise networking and systems architecture, with hands-on proficiency in core protocols (DNS, HTTP, SSL, TCP/IP) and diagnosing complex networking, replication, performance, and capacity issues.
- Exceptional customer crisis management skills, with a proven ability to lead multi-stakeholder technical calls, de-escalate high-pressure situations, and translate complex engineering concepts into concise strategic communications.
