Kubernetes/EKS migration design, including ownership of on-prem to cloud migrations end-to-end
IAM/IDM design and security reviews (Okta/SailPoint/Entra-type tooling)
Work closely across architecture, risk/compliance, and infra teams daily, so collaboration style matters as much as technical depth

Must-haves:
Can PROVE hands-on experience , owning end-to-end solution design not - designed it and a team built it
Has personally owned an EKS/Kubernetes migration end-to-end (not just coached/advised one)
