Infrastructure Engineer

DataXstream's IT Operations team manages the on-premises infrastructure that keeps the company running — a VMware virtualization estate of 200+ virtual machines, enterprise backup systems, and the server infrastructure underlying key business operations. The Infrastructure Engineer owns this stack day-to-day, ensures high availability, and partners closely with the IT Systems & Security Engineer to ensure no single point of failure exists across IT Operations.

This is a great opportunity for someone early in their infrastructure career who wants real ownership of a production environment from day one. You will work alongside experienced engineers, learn enterprise infrastructure hands-on, and grow into a role that is central to how DataXstream operates and evolves.

Main Duties and Responsibilities

• Day-to-day administration of VMware vSphere, vCenter, and the 200+ VM estate — provisioning, patching, performance monitoring, and capacity planning.
• Veeam Backup & Replication management — job configuration, scheduling, monitoring, test restores, retention policy, and backup health reporting.
• Server infrastructure support alongside the Director of IT Operations — primarily Linux server administration, patching, and lifecycle management, with some Windows server coverage.
• SUSE Manager (SUMA) — Linux patch management, configuration management, and software distribution across the server estate.
• Storage management — monitoring and maintaining the underlying storage infrastructure (SAN/NAS) and ensuring adequate capacity.
• Contribution to Infrastructure as Code (IaC) initiatives — working toward declarative, auditable infrastructure management for on-premises and cloud resources.
• Participation in IT Operations on-call rotation for infrastructure incidents and emergencies.

Cross-Coverage Responsibilities

DataXstream is committed to eliminating single points of failure across IT Operations. This role is expected to develop working knowledge of the IT Systems & Security Engineer's domain sufficient to provide continuity during absence.

• Basic Addigy MDM health monitoring and policy review — ability to identify and facilitate escalation of issues.
• Security monitoring triage awareness — ability to identify and facilitate escalation of basic alerts using established runbooks.
• Endpoint inventory awareness — understanding of the Mac fleet state and active lifecycle activities.

Must-Have Skills and Qualifications

• Foundational understanding of virtualization concepts — exposure to VMware vSphere or vCenter in any environment (homelab, coursework, internship, or professional).
• Familiarity with backup and recovery concepts; any exposure to Veeam is a plus.
• Linux administration experience — servers at DataXstream are primarily Linux; comfort with the command line and terminal‑based administration is essential.
• Strong terminal skills — you are comfortable administering systems via CLI without relying on a GUI.
• Familiarity with Linux patch and configuration management — any exposure to SUSE Manager (SUMA), Ansible, or similar tooling is a plus.
• Basic Windows Server experience — a small number of Windows servers exist alongside the Linux fleet.
• Networking fundamentals: VLANs, DNS, DHCP, and basic firewall concepts.
• Scripting ability — comfort writing Bash scripts for automation, task scheduling, and system administration is expected; Python is a plus.
• Strong troubleshooting instincts and comfort working through problems independently.
• Willingness to participate in on‑call rotation and respond to infrastructure incidents.
• Clear written communication — you document what you learn and what you change.
• Proficiency in English.

What We Value

• Curiosity — you want to understand the platform, not just make the ticket go away.
• Ownership — when something is yours to deliver, you see it through.
• Communication — you keep customers and teammates informed, especially when things get complicated.
• Growth mindset — every customer engagement teaches you something; you pay attention to those lessons.
• Collaboration — you ask the team when you're stuck and you share what you learn.

Nice to Have

• Any exposure to VMware Tanzu or Kubernetes.
• Familiarity with IaC tooling: Terraform, Ansible, or equivalent.
• Exposure to Azure or SAP BTP cloud platforms.
• VMware VCP certification, or active pursuit of it.
• macOS familiarity — endpoints across DataXstream are macOS; awareness of the Apple ecosystem is a meaningful plus.
• Homelab or self‑directed infrastructure project experience.
• Exposure to CAB or change process management — infrastructure changes have downstream impact; familiarity with structured change management or change advisory board processes is a plus.
• Familiarity with Atlassian tools — Jira for task and project management.
• Experience using company‑approved AI tools to increase personal productivity and efficiency.
