  • Understanding of storage protocols like NFS, SMB, SAS, FC, iSCSI, and NFS v4

  • Experience with configuration management tools like Ansible or similar systems, along with version control using Git

  • Strong working knowledge and technical competency with Linux OS


Desirable Experience

  • Familiarity with Agile/Scrum methodologies

  • Experience with VMWare VSAN and virtualisation technologies

  • Proficiency in scripting languages such as Python/BASH and knowledge of Gitlab CI/CD for continuous integration

  • Exposure to backup solutions like NetBackup

  • Hands-on experience with containerisation technologies like Docker and Kubernetes

  • Understanding of cloud storage solutions and familiarity with clustered file systems such as GPFS, Isilon, Qumulo, and Ceph

  • Knowledge of non-clustered file systems like ZFS, XFS, and EXT4, as well as object storage, erasure coding, and S3 technologies

  • Competence with Solaris operating systems
