• Experience in creating repeatable, reliable, scalable systems architectures, with high availability, fault tolerance, performance tuning, monitoring, and statistics/metrics collection.
• Experience operating production virtualization platforms such as VMware vSphere/vCenter (clustering, HA, DRS, vMotion, datastore design) and/or Hyper-V or KVM.
• Experience architecting and operating enterprise storage, including protocols and platforms such as NFS, SMB/CIFS, iSCSI, Fibre Channel, NVMe-oF, NetApp, Pure Storage, and object storage.
• Deep expertise generating server and host design specifications (CPU, memory, NIC, HBA, local vs. shared storage) to meet defined performance, availability, and density requirements.
• Experience with array- and hypervisor-based snapshots, replication, and backup integration for virtual machine and storage recovery.
• Proven ability to diagnose compute and storage performance issues (IOPS, latency, queue depth, CPU ready/co-stop, datastore contention, fabric/pathing).
• Experience implementing configuration management, provisioning, and workflow automation via infrastructure as code and CI/CD (e.g. Ansible, AWX/Tower, Puppet, cloud-init, Jenkins).
• Experience with programming and scripting languages such as Python, PowerShell, or Golang to automate day-to-day tasks and integrate with external systems through RESTful APIs.
