  • Understanding of authentication methods such as OAuth, API keys, and certificates.
  • Experience using network analysis tools such as Wireshark or Fiddler.
  • Experience with SQL databases and basic scripting (Python, PowerShell, or similar) for test automation.
  • Knowledge of IEC 61850, OPC UA, Modbus, or other industrial communication standards.
  • Familiarity with issue tracking systems such as Jira.
