- Solid understanding of data center and cloud networking concepts: EVPN-VXLAN, VRFs, routing, NAT, load balancing, firewalling. You don't need to configure a switch, but you should be able to read a config and follow the conversation.
- Strong communication skills: able to translate between engineering depth and business outcomes without losing fidelity in either direction.
- Comfortable operating in ambiguity: this is a greenfield PM function, and you'll be building the playbook as much as following it.
