  • Good understanding of Azure networking and PaaS services (e.g., ExpressRoute, SQL DB, ASE, Azure web apps) and expertise in operating systems, virtualisation platforms, and storage is a significant bonus.
  • Strong capability in writing technical designs and implementation plans and experience in 24x7 high availability environments.
  • Excellent consultative, communication, interpersonal, and problem-solving skills, with the ability to capture and understand business requirements in Agile projects.
  • Proven ability to mentor a team to successful outcomes, with well-developed skills in prioritisation, relationship building, and delivering under deadlines.
