• Great if they could contribute in .NET but mainly pipeline work and working with devs.
• Kubernetes experience is #huge -  - deliver images and they run properly
• High visibility role
• Heavy clusters, AKS
• App security experience is secondary to true DevOps/Platform  -need to understand  vulnerability checks and be VERY familiar with security
• Delivery secure code
• **This person could be a DevOps/Platform person with Security and doesn't necessarily have to be a true DevSecOps engineer
• Certs are truly a plus

Past Struggles in finding this person:

• He finds people who load their resume with keywords- people can't explain in depth
• Needs someone proactive and takes initiative
