About the Role

Seeking a Senior VMware / Hypervisor Engineer to operate and maintain mission‑critical private cloud infrastructure in a 24/7 environment. This role focuses on Windows Server administration, VMware engineering, and PowerShell automation, ensuring reliability, scalability, and performance across global production environments.

You will design, implement, and administer VMware and Windows environments, lead automation initiatives, and provide capacity planning, performance optimization, and incident response.

  • Administer Windows Server (2012 R2-2022) and core services (Active Directory, DNS, DHCP, DFS)
  • Build and maintain virtual machines and virtualization infrastructure
  • Develop automation solutions using PowerShell / PowerCLI
  • Perform capacity planning, performance tuning, and preventive maintenance
  • Lead production incident response, root cause analysis, and postmortems
  • Participate in a 24/7 on‑call rotation to ensure uptime and reliability

Must‑Have Skills

  • VMware ESXi (primary skillset)
  • VMware vSphere & vCenter
  • Hyper‑V and other hypervisors
  • Private Cloud (non‑AWS) environments
  • Strong PowerShell scripting / PowerCLI expertise
  • Minimum 8-9 years of experience in VMware/Hypervisor engineering

Preferred Experience

  • Deep, hands‑on VMware expertise (non‑negotiable)
  • Proven background supporting mission‑critical, always‑on environments
  • Strong understanding of virtualization at infrastructure/system level
  • Ability to own production reliability end‑to‑end
  • Mindset focused on automation and operational efficiency
