→GitOps & Deployments: Deploy, roll back, and manage the lifecycle of containerized applications using ArgoCD pipeline workflows.
→Alert Triage & Resolution: Act as the first line of defense to investigate, troubleshoot, and resolve infrastructure, OS-level, application, and network alerts.
→Network Troubleshooting: Diagnose connectivity and latency issues across all network layers, isolating problems between cloud VPCs and Kubernetes overlays.
→OS Troubleshooting: Diagnose deep Operating System bottlenecks including CPU throttling, memory leaks, and storage constraints on GKE worker nodes.
→AIOps Utilization: Use AI-driven operations tools to interpret correlated events, anomaly detections, and automated root-cause insights.
→Incident Response: Participate in on-call rotations, using Grafana dashboards and AIOps suggestions to quickly mitigate production container issues.

CI/CD & GitOps: Practical experience deploying and managing applications using ArgoCD and Git version control systems.
Networking: Comprehensive knowledge of all layers of networking (OSI model), with practical troubleshooting skills in Layer 7 (Application): HTTP/S, DNS, gRPC, and SSL/TLS handshakes; Layer 4 (Transport): TCP/UDP mechanics, three-way handshakes, and port allocation; Layer 3 (Network): IP routing, CIDR blocks, Subnetting, and ICMP; Kubernetes Networking: Understanding of Pod-to-Pod communication, Services, Ingress controllers, and CNI plugins.
Operating Systems: Strong, deep foundational knowledge of Linux (Ubuntu, Debian, or Container-Optimized OS) internals, process management, file systems, and kernel parameters.
System & Network Utilities: Proficiency with command-line diagnostic tools (e.g., tcpdump, curl, dig, traceroute, top, iostat).
AIOps Concepts: Familiarity with AI-driven operations, event correlation, anomaly detection, and automated noise reduction.
Observability: Foundational experience with the Grafana Labs ecosystem (Grafana, Mimir/Prometheus, Loki, Tempo).
Orchestration: Functional knowledge of deploying, scaling, and managing workloads in GKE.
ML/AIOps (nice to have ) : Anomaly detection concepts , log-based ML models
Demonstrated experience writing automation scripts in Python, Bash, or Go
