- Experience supporting regulated industries such as finance, healthcare, or government.
- Hands‑on experience with Azure BCDR tools such as Azure Site Recovery, Backup Vaults, Automation, or Service Health.
- Knowledge of hybrid or multi‑cloud environments and their resiliency implications.
- Exposure to chaos engineering or resilience testing tools.
- Experience integrating DR validation or backup checks into DevOps pipelines.
- Familiarity with incident simulation platforms, runbook automation, Microsoft Sentinel, or ServiceNow workflows.
