- Strong problem-solving skills and attention to detail
- Eagerness to learn and take ownership of tasks
- Demonstrated experience working with Claude or equivalent large language model tools is required; candidates must be comfortable leveraging AI to enhance productivity, research, and communication.

Preferred Knowledge and Skills:

- Familiarity with containers (Docker) and basic Kubernetes concepts
- Exposure to logging, monitoring, or SIEM tools
- Basic understanding of CI/CD pipelines
- Interest in areas like cloud security, infrastructure security, or detection engineering
