- Manage technical escalations and tickets. You will communicate directly with clients to resolve complex technical issues, acting as a trusted technical advisor.

- Identify manual operational tasks and automate them using scripting (Bash, PowerShell) or Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, Ansible).
- Monitor KPIs, manage database health (KQL, MSSQL), and optimize containerized environments (Docker/Kubernetes).
Qualifications

- Strong scripting skills (Bash, or PowerShell).
- Familiarity with .NET/ASP.NET environments is a strong plus.
