Requirements
- 5+ years of hands-on experience in infrastructure engineering with demonstrated depth and breadth of knowledge across multiple domains (virtualization, storage, networking, Windows Server administration).
- Strong expertise in Microsoft Hyper-V at enterprise scale: failover clustering, live migration, storage spaces / S2D, virtual networking (Hyper-V virtual switch, SET), and Windows Server administration.
- Strong proficiency in PowerShell scripting for infrastructure automation, host configuration management, WMI-based inventory collection, and operational tooling.
- Demonstrated ability to audit performance of complex infrastructure architecture across the full stack and to maintain architecture artifacts (design documents, decision records, diagrams).
- Experience with storage performance analysis and optimization in virtualized environments benchmarking, capacity planning, and storage policy design.
- Ability to evaluate hardware BOMs for Hyper-V suitability assessing processor/memory ratios, storage I/O characteristics, network throughput, and overcommit profiles.
- Experience with infrastructure automation and configuration management tools (DSC, SCCM, Ansible, or equivalent) at data center scale.
- Experience advocating for and implementing infrastructure automation CI/CD pipelines, operational process improvement, and configuration-as-code with a focus on scalability versus resource use.
- Track record of providing stewardship to other engineers through technical guidance, design review, and documentation.
- Degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Information Systems, or a related technical field.
- Preferred Qualifications, Capabilities, and Skills
- Experience with Windows Server Failover Clustering (WSFC) and Storage Spaces Direct (S2D) at enterprise scale.
- Experience with additional hypervisors (VMware ESXi, KVM, etc.) production experience with dual-hypervisor environments are a plus.
- Familiarity with server hardware architecture (Intel Xeon, AMD EPYC, NVMe storage, GPU accelerators) sufficient to evaluate hardware proposals for Hyper-V workload suitability.
- Experience with network fabric integration in virtualized environments VLAN, SDN, load balancing, and network adapter teaming.
- Working knowledge of C# / .NET for maintaining and extending infrastructure automation platforms.
- Experience with Microsoft System Center (VMM, SCOM, SCCM) at enterprise scale.
- Experience with security compliance remediation Qualys vulnerability management, break management, and security baseline enforcement.
- Experience with performance testing frameworks (elbencho, VMFleet, diskspd, fio or similar) for storage and compute validation.
- Familiarity with using generative AI tools to accelerate engineering and research cycles.
