Design and support highly available virtualization platforms and Windows-based infrastructure services.
Perform advanced troubleshooting and root cause analysis for infrastructure, performance, and availability issues.
Automate operational tasks and infrastructure management using PowerShell.
Support enterprise services including Active Directory, DNS, DHCP, file services, print services, Microsoft 365, and identity services.
Develop and maintain technical documentation, standards, and operational procedures.
Lead infrastructure improvement initiatives focused on reliability, scalability, security, and operational efficiency.
Mentor junior engineers and provide technical leadership across the infrastructure team.
Evaluate emerging technologies and recommend improvements based on business requirements and industry best practices.

Qualification

Strong troubleshootingExperience with Microsoft clustering

Required

Bachelor's degree in Information Technology, Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent experience.
9+ years of Windows Server administration experience in a large enterprise environment.
9+ years of hands-on VMware administration experience including vSphere, ESXi, and vCenter.
9+ years supporting enterprise Active Directory environments including Group Policy, DNS, DHCP, authentication, and identity management.
Strong experience supporting Microsoft 365 and Entra ID (Azure AD).
Strong PowerShell scripting experience for automation and systems administration.
Experience supporting highly available production environments with hundreds or thousands of virtual machines.
Strong troubleshooting, problem-solving, and documentation skills.

VMware Horizon administration and support experience.

Experience with storage platforms supporting VMware environments.
Familiarity with infrastructure automation tools such as Ansible or Terraform.
VMware Certified Professional (VCP) certification preferred.
Microsoft certifications related to Windows Server, Active Directory, or Azure preferred.
This version reads much more like a true senior VMware/Windows engineer rather than a general infrastructure engineer. It makes Active Directory, VMware, vCenter, PowerShell, DNS/DHCP, and Windows Server the core competencies and leaves everything else secondary. That should attract a much stronger candidate pool for the type of role you're likely building.
