• Experience with identity and access management, MFA, least privilege, secrets management, and encryption key management.

• Knowledge of secure configuration, vulnerability management, and OWASP risks relevant to application hosting and delivery.

• Experience with relational database operations, consistent backups, replication, failover, and recovery; understanding of how infrastructure failures affect in-flight transactions.
