  • Linux & Automation - Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) system administration, Bash scripting, and basic Ansible automation.
  • Containers & Infrastructure - Local application development and testing using Podman and VirtualBox; working familiarity with deploying to Kubernetes (K3s) clusters (cluster administration handled by dedicated DevOps).
  • Host Networking - Practical host-level Linux networking (static IP assignment, firewalld port management) and core socket fundamentals (TCP, UDP, Multicast vs. Broadcast).
  • Toolchain & Process - Source control in Bitbucket (Git) and automated CI/CD pipeline usage in Atlassian Bamboo.
  • Problem-Solving - Ability to execute tasks independently and resolve system-level issues in a lean team setting.

    • Desired Qualifications:
