○ Proficiency in managing deployments in Kubernetes clusters, including offline

installations, upgrades via Helm, and adaptations for client restrictions (e.g., no

additional tools or VMs).

○ Track record of handling client interactions, such as asking probing questions

about infrastructure (e.g., OS versions, storage solutions, network restrictions)

and explaining technical concepts clearly.

● Technical Skills:

○ Strong knowledge of Helm syntax and functionalities (e.g., Go templating, hooks,

subcharts, dependency management).

storage (e.g., MinIO, Ceph, NFS, cloud-native like S3/EBS).

namespaces, HPA, liveness/readiness probes, network policies, and RBAC.

○ Solid grasp of cloud networking: VPCs (definition, boundaries, virtualization via

SDN, differences from private clouds), bare metal vs. virtual machines

(advantages like resource efficiency, flexibility, and scalability).

○ Ability to work in air-gapped environments, preparing offline artifacts and

ensuring self-contained deployment
