Job description

UK | Home-Based | Permanent

We’re working with an established UK technology services business that’s looking to strengthen its Cloud & Infrastructure Engineering team with an experienced Senior Engineer.

This is a hands-on, project-focused role, working across VMware, Microsoft Infrastructure and Azure, delivering infrastructure migrations, cloud transformation and complex customer implementations.

Rather than focusing on day-to-day BAU support, you’ll be involved in taking projects from technical discovery and planning through to implementation, migration, testing and handover.

You’ll work closely with Architects, Project Managers and Engineering teams, taking ownership of technical delivery and helping customers modernise their infrastructure.

What we’re looking for:

• Strong experience with VMware vSphere, ESXi and vCenter, including migrations, upgrades and implementations
• Solid Microsoft infrastructure background covering Windows Server, Active Directory, Group Policy, DNS and DHCP
• Practical experience with Microsoft Azure, particularly infrastructure deployments, migrations or hybrid cloud environments
• Experience delivering infrastructure projects within a Professional Services, Consultancy or Managed Services environment
• Good understanding of Microsoft 365, Entra ID and hybrid identity
• Exposure to infrastructure automation using PowerShell, PowerCLI, Terraform or Bicep
• Experience producing technical documentation, migration plans and implementation runbooks
• Confidence taking ownership of technical projects, troubleshooting complex issues and working directly with customers

The opportunity

You’ll be joining a team delivering a wide range of customer infrastructure and cloud projects, with exposure to both established enterprise technologies and modern hybrid cloud platforms

There’s plenty of variety across VMware, Microsoft and Azure, with the opportunity to take technical ownership, contribute to engineering standards and support less experienced engineers.

Experience with VMware Cloud Foundation, vSAN, NSX or Azure Landing Zones would be advantageous, but isn’t essential.

If you’re a Senior Infrastructure Engineer, Cloud Engineer or Technical Consultant who enjoys project delivery and wants to work across a broader range of technologies, I’d be keen to speak.
