Your familiarity with monitoring and logging tools like Nagios, Prometheus, or Grafana will ensure that we have visibility into system performance and can quickly identify and address any issues that may arise. Your strong problem-solving abilities and ability to work collaboratively in a team environment will enable us to tackle complex challenges and continuously improve our infrastructure.
