Collaboration and Innovation:

• Work closely with internal teams, including product and engineering, to align client needs with technical capabilities.

• Contribute to the development of reusable assets such as demo environments, technical templates, and case studies for open-source solutions.

• Participate in the open-source community, contributing code, plugins, or other resources to strengthen the ecosystem and build credibility.

Required Skills:

• Strong hands-on experience with open-source tools and technologies, especially in DevOps, CI/CD, and infrastructure management.

• Proven ability to conduct technical demos and communicate complex technical concepts to non-technical audiences.

• Excellent problem-solving and troubleshooting skills, with a focus on delivering client-centric solutions.

• Strong interpersonal and communication skills to build trust with clients and internal teams.
