Nice to Haves

Industry certifications such as CompTIA Network+, CompTIA Server+, LPIC-1, or equivalent.

Experience with hosting platforms such as Hetzner (or DigitalOcean, Linode, AWS EC2) for provisioning and managing remote servers.
Hands-on experience with Portainer for managing Docker containers and stacks.
