- Proficiency in scripting and/or programming (Python, Bash, PowerShell, or similar)
- Working knowledge of security best practices and controls
- Superb communication and strong project management skills
- Ability to learn new platforms and technologies quickly
- Familiarity with public cloud environments, particularly AWS
