- Kernel logs and crash analysis
Ability to diagnose issues across hardware, kernel, middleware, and application layers.
Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.

Professional Competencies

Strong focus on software quality, reliability, maintainability, and process compliance.
Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
Effective teamwork and cross-functional collaboration.
Ability to work independently and drive technical solutions.
