  • Experience with Azure and AWS cloud platforms, including cloud security tools.
  • Skills in Infrastructure as Code (IaC) using Ansible, Azure ARM, Bicep, and AWS CloudFormation.
  • Experience with security monitoring tools like Azure Security Centre, AWS Security Hub, and familiarity with cloud security monitoring techniques.
