KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

• Deploy, configure, and manage VMware vSphere / ESXi environments including vCenter, vSAN, and distributed virtual switches

• Automate routine tasks using Bash scripting and Ansible / Red Hat Automation Platform
• Ensure systems meet security baselines and lead remediation of identified vulnerabilities
• Configure and manage enterprise network components including switches, routers, firewalls, and load balancers
• Administer VLANs, subnetting, routing, and network segmentation across physical and virtual layers
• Manage virtual networking within VMware (vSwitches, distributed port groups, NSX where applicable)
• Troubleshoot network connectivity issues and resolve incidents across the full infrastructure stack
• Respond to monitoring alerts, manage incidents, and contribute to root-cause analysis and problem resolution
• Maintain accurate infrastructure documentation and contribute to change management processes
• Collaborate with application, security, and project teams to plan and deliver infrastructure changes
• Participate in on-call rotation and provide out-of-hours support as required

REQUIRED SKILLS & EXPERIENCE

• 3–5 years of hands-on experience in an infrastructure or systems engineering role
• Strong VMware vSphere / ESXi / vCenter administration — practical, production-level experience
• Proficient in Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) — management, scripting, and troubleshooting
• Solid understanding of enterprise networking — TCP/IP, VLANs, routing, firewalls, DNS, DHCP
• Experience with storage technologies — SAN, NAS, iSCSI, NFS, LVM
• Ability to automate tasks using Bash, Python, or Ansible
• Familiarity with ITSM processes — incident, change, and problem management
• Strong diagnostic skills and a methodical approach to problem solving
• Clear communicator — able to document and explain technical work to varied audiences
