Linux Engineer
89%Here’s the filled-out Candidate Evaluation Table for K**** M******* against the Senior Linux Engineer role, followed by key insights and the total score.
Total Score: 90/100
Key Insights:
- Exceptional Linux Experience (17+ years) – Directly aligns with the JD’s 5+ year requirement, with deep expertise in RHEL (v7/8/9), automation (Ansible), and cloud (GCP/Azure).
- Strong Primary Skills Match – Validated hands-on work with RHEL, VMware, GCP, Ansible, and security hardening (CIS benchmarks).
- Secondary Skills & Tools Proficiency – Demonstrated experience with Terraform, Packer, and Red Hat Satellite, though some tools (e.g., Delinia Server Suite) are unmentioned.
- Domain Expertise – Recent work in healthcare (CVS Health) and utilities (Spire Inc.) shows adaptability, but not a perfect match for the JD’s implied focus on high-availability infrastructure.
- Minor Gaps – No explicit mention of PCI/SOX compliance or Centrify AD Bridge (Delinia) in the resume, though security baselining is covered.
