Cloud experience (AWS essential; Azure/GCP desirable)

Strong DevSecOps tooling knowledge (Git, GitLab CI/CD, Terraform, Ansible)

Containerisation and orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes; GPU containers desirable)

Cyber security practices (vulnerability management, IAM, secure networking)

Experience with microservices, APIs, streaming platforms (Kafka/MQTT)
