Proven Azure Expertise: Extensive experience with a wide range of Azure services, with a strong focus on IaaS and PaaS components.
Infrastructure Focus: Solid understanding of core infrastructure concepts, including networking, virtualisation, storage, and identity management within an Azure context.
Scripting & Automation: Proficiency in scripting languages such as PowerShell or Azure CLI, and experience with Infrastructure as Code (e.g., ARM templates, Bicep, Terraform).
Independent Worker: Ability to work autonomously, manage priorities, and deliver results with minimal supervision.
Financial Services Experience: Experience working within the Financial Services sector is highly desirable. Understanding of the regulatory and compliance demands within this industry will be a significant advantage.
