Just a reminder – as per our Job Brief session - we need candidates for whom:

• - Linux scripting and Administration of Kubernetes and SQL Queries is daily bread and butter – and not something they have just heard about or have done 10 years ago
• - being able to roll up their sleeves, log onto a server and start troubleshooting an issue or configure / health check a Kubernetes cluster is not a scary concept and
• - someone who will do this with minimal to no reliance on another team member or Google search.
