- Communicate clearly with everyone from execs to end-users
- Lead the charge when critical incidents come up

Requirements
- A tech-savvy pro with a degree in an engineering or tech-related field
- 5+ years working in cloud infrastructure

- You know Infrastructure as Code like the back of your hand
- Solid grasp of cloud infra: VDI, networking, security, DevSecOps
- Cost-aware mindset when building or scaling cloud services
- Experience with GitHub, Jenkins, and CI/CD pipelines
- Comfortable learning new tools and doing deep technical research
- Skilled at working across departments and with both business and tech leaders
- Familiar with ITIL practices like change management

- A strong communicator whoâs good with both written and verbal updates
- Detail-oriented, organized, and resilient under pressure
- Comfortable with flexible hours and occasional after-hours work
