• GCP certifications
• Azure certifications
• Experience with Wiz or similar cloud security platforms
• VMware-to-cloud migration experience
• Stronger cloud networking background
• Experience supporting environments containing PHI and/or PII
• Experience within healthcare or another regulated industry
• Experience supporting infrastructure for analytics/data platforms
• Exposure to AI-related infrastructure or emerging cloud technologies What Makes This Role Interesting
• Opportunity to bring GCP expertise to a team actively expanding its capabilities in that environment
• Work across both GCP and Azure rather than being siloed into a single cloud platform
• Direct involvement in cloud modernization and on-prem-to-cloud migration
• Exposure to cloud security, analytics infrastructure, automation, and emerging technologies
• Collaborative environment with dedicated specialists across networking, security, identity, and data

I also removed AWS as a requirement, elevated GCP, Terraform, security, and VMware-to-cloud work, and made the day-to-day tangible enough for candidates to quickly determine whether they're a fit.
