  • Proficiency in supporting both RHEL and Windows Server-based virtual machines.
  • Strong understanding of Azure IaaS services, including virtual machines, storage accounts, load balancers, NSGs, and availability sets/zones.
  • Experience with infrastructure patching using native Azure tools.
  • Familiarity with monitoring and observability tools, particularly Azure Monitor and Dynatrace.
