  • Collaboration and Communication Skills: Proven ability to work cross-functionally with developers, DevOps engineers, and stakeholders to align cloud architecture with business goals, effectively communicating complex concepts to technical and non-technical teams.
  • Performance Optimization and Cost Management: Expertise in optimizing cloud performance and managing cloud costs, understanding how to balance resource allocation with financial efficiency, using autoscaling and monitoring tools to ensure operational effectiveness.
