Hands-on experience working with Virtual Machines (VMs), including supporting applications and scripts in virtualized environments.
Practical experience with OpenShift Container Platform (OCP), including application deployments, configuration, and troubleshooting.
Experience working with JBoss application servers, including supporting application environments and resolving configuration or compatibility issues.
Experience with scripting and automation tools such as Python, PowerShell, or Groovy.
Strong Linux operating system knowledge, ideally across RHEL, CentOS, or Ubuntu.
Experience supporting application migrations, infrastructure upgrades, or modernization initiatives involving legacy technologies.
