## Description

Careerscape is recruiting on behalf of our client in New York, NY, for a Director of IT Infrastructure to lead the strategy, architecture, and operations of its enterprise technology environment. This is a high-visibility hybrid role for a hands-on technology leader who can balance long-term infrastructure planning with the day-to-day reliability that keeps a modern business running.
Day to day, you will split your time between strategic planning sessions with executive leadership and rolling up your sleeves alongside your engineering teams to solve tough infrastructure problems. The person who thrives here has led networks, servers, cloud environments, and security operations at scale, communicates clearly with non-technical stakeholders, and takes ownership of uptime, resilience, and the roadmap that gets the organization ready for what is next.
Responsibilities

 * Lead the design, implementation, and ongoing management of enterprise network, server, and cloud infrastructure
 * Develop and execute a multi-year IT infrastructure roadmap aligned with business goals
 * Manage and mentor a team of systems administrators, network engineers, and infrastructure specialists
 * Oversee data center operations, disaster recovery planning, and business continuity programs
 * Establish and enforce infrastructure security standards in partnership with the information security team
 * Own vendor relationships and contract negotiations for hardware, software, and cloud services
 * Monitor system performance and capacity, proactively addressing risks before they impact operations
 * Manage the infrastructure budget and identify opportunities for cost optimization
 * Collaborate with application and product teams to ensure infrastructure supports business initiatives
 * Drive adoption of automation and infrastructure-as-code practices across the environment
