TL;DR · Infrastructure Engineer II

Infrastructure Engineer II joins the Global Restaurant Technology Platform team to manage the infrastructure powering over 40,000 restaurants globally. This role focuses on bare-metal and server engineering for physical servers, thin clients, and purpose-built restaurant technology. You will be responsible for the lifecycle management of operating systems, including Windows Server and Client OS, while overseeing provisioning, imaging, firmware updates, and configuration management. Day-to-day tasks involve troubleshooting complex hardware and firmware issues without existing runbooks, automating operational processes through PowerShell, Bash, or Python, and managing fleet tools like Tanium, Intune, or SCCM. You will also utilize Git for version control and collaborate on infrastructure as code to ensure secure, scalable solutions. The role addresses the technical challenge of maintaining high-availability systems in a large-scale retail environment where hardware must perform reliably across diverse global markets.

What you'll do

  • Engineer and modernize Windows operating systems, images, and deployment solutions for a global restaurant fleet.
  • Manage the lifecycle of compute platforms including hardware qualification, provisioning, firmware updates, and configuration management.
  • Troubleshoot complex hardware, firmware, and OS issues to create standards and documentation for improved supportability.
  • Develop and deploy automation scripts and tools using PowerShell, Bash, or Python to improve operational efficiency.
  • Evaluate platform architecture and performance to identify risks and opportunities for continuous improvement.
  • Design solutions that meet global business requirements while accounting for local hardware and regulatory needs.
  • Influence engineering standards and technical direction to ensure scalable and maintainable infrastructure.
  • Implement security best practices and automated solutions to remediate vulnerabilities across the restaurant network.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor's degree in computer science or related field, or equivalent practical experience.
  • 3+ years of experience in server, endpoint, or infrastructure engineering (or equivalent demonstrated capability).
  • Experience building and maintaining Windows Server and Client images at scale with automated deployment and configuration baselines.
  • Proficiency in bare-metal hardware provisioning including firmware/BIOS configuration and out-of-band management tools like iDRAC or iLO.
  • Ability to perform root-cause diagnosis on hardware, firmware, and OS issues without existing documentation.
  • Proficiency in PowerShell plus Bash or Python for automation of operational processes.
  • Experience with fleet management tools such as Tanium, Intune, SCCM/MECM, or Ansible.
  • Working knowledge of Git-based workflows including branching, pull requests, and code reviews.
