It would be great if you had a Solid understanding of Secure Access Service Edge (SASE)  architecture and best practices. (Not a deal breaker) Expertise in backup and disaster recovery strategies using Azure services and third-party solutions like Veeam. Experience with automation tools, such as Azure Automation, PowerShell, or Terraform, to streamline deployments. Familiarity with identity and access management (IAM) principles, particularly with Azure AD, MFA, and role-based access control (RBAC). Ability to assess and optimise licensing for both current on-premise systems and future cloud infrastructure. Familiarity with security and compliance standards such as ISO 27001, NIST, and CIS benchmarks.
