  • Automate routine tasks and infrastructure provisioning using PowerShell, Python, Ansible, or Terraform.
  • Implement security best practices and system hardening to ensure compliance with HIPAA and other standards.
  • Monitor resource utilization and capacity to ensure optimal performance and scalability of the private cloud.

What we're looking for

  • 7+ years of experience in systems, infrastructure, or virtualization operations.
  • In-depth knowledge of VMware vSphere/ESXi and hyper-converged platforms like vSAN and VxRail.
  • Experience working in a 24x7 on-call environment.
  • Proficiency in Windows Server OS, Active Directory, and Group Policy with Linux familiarity.
  • Strong understanding of data center networking and enterprise storage (SAN, vSAN, HCI, software-defined storage).
  • Working knowledge of ITIL practices, including incident, problem, and change management.
  • Bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience (High school diploma plus 4 years relevant work experience).
