Deep expertise in Debian-based Linux distributions, Linux internals, Debian packaging, and APT repository management.
Experience designing secure, production-grade Linux platforms, including distribution customization, lifecycle management, hardware enablement, and platform integration.
Strong understanding of software architecture, security frameworks, secure software supply chains, SBOMs, CI/CD, and release automation.
Experience with cloud and container technologies such as AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, Docker, Podman, or Kubernetes.
Proficiency in one or more relevant programming languages such as C, C++, Rust, Go, or Python; contributions to Debian, the Linux kernel, or related open-source projects are highly valued.
