  • Deep understanding of server operating systems, virtualization technologies, and cloud platforms.
  • Expertise in network design, security, and administration (TCP/IP, routing, switching, firewalls).
  • Proficiency in scripting and automation tools for infrastructure management.
  • Excellent analytical, troubleshooting, and strategic planning skills.
  • Strong self-management capabilities and the ability to work autonomously.
Benefits
  • A highly competitive annual salary reflecting expertise and remote work contribution.
