 * Optimize virtual machine performance and resource allocation.

 * Maintain standardized templates and configuration governance.

Backup & Disaster Recovery (Veeam)

 * Administer and optimize Veeam Backup & Replication.

 * Define and maintain RPO/RTO targets for critical systems.

 * Perform periodic restore validation and disaster recovery testing.

 * Maintain documented recovery procedures and DR runbooks.

 * Manage multi-site backup strategies, including full and incremental backups.

Networking & Security

 * Deploy and troubleshoot enterprise networks, including Firewalling, routing, and switching/VLAN architecture.

 * Support routing fundamentals and firewall rule governance.

 * Maintain secure IT/OT segmentation design.

 * Support patch compliance and vulnerability remediation initiatives.

 * Participate in firewall reviews and security hardening efforts.

 * Familiarity with industrial protocols (Modbus, DNP3, OPC-UA) preferred.

Operational Excellence & Incident Response

 * Serve as a senior escalation point during infrastructure incidents.

 * Lead root cause analysis (RCA) following outages or service degradation.

 * Monitor infrastructure performance, storage health, and system capacity.

 * Proactively identify risks and implement mitigation strategies.

 * Develop and maintain infrastructure standards, SOPs, and documentation.

Availability & Support Expectations

 * Participate in on-call rotation.

 * Support scheduled maintenance during plant outage windows.

 * Support occasional off-hours deployments as required.

 * Ensure minimal operational disruption during maintenance activities.
