Managing infrastructure as code with Terraform and Ansible
Improving observability with Grafana, OpenSearch, metrics and alerting
Handling operational and support tasks, which are shared across the whole team, seniors included
Working closely with R&D, QA, SRE and infrastructure teams to improve developer experience and delivery speed

Real hands-on experience deploying and supporting on-premise infrastructure , including troubleshooting at the hardware and infrastructure level

Readiness to work with legacy systems and Windows environments (Windows Server, Hyper-V, PowerShell) as well as modern stacks
A strong ownership mindset: you take initiatives from start to finish and deliver measurable results
Self-driven problem solving: you dig into unfamiliar systems on your own instead of waiting for step-by-step guidance
Systems thinking: you see the full path from code to production and can spot bottlenecks
Clear, pragmatic communication, and the ability to deliver iteratively without overengineering
A collaborative attitude, with low ego and high accountability

Will be a plus:

Experience with several cloud providers or hybrid infrastructure
