Deep familiarity with OpenShift architectures, APIs, operators, and cluster operations. Ability to juggle multiple issues, priorities, and projects with excellent attention to detail. Strong customer-facing skills: ability to grow relationships, foster trust, and communicate complex technical ideas to both technical and non-technical stakeholders. Excellent verbal and written communication skills in English. Commitment to pursue relevant Red Hat certifications (e.g., RHCE, OpenShift Administration, OpenShift Virtualization). Collaborative mindset, able to work across internal (Red Hat) and external (customer, integrators, partners) teams. Quick learner, self-starter, and ability to adapt to evolving technologies and environments. Strong time management and prioritization capabilities.
