Job description

Intro

We are seeking a Senior Commvault Engineer with 8+ years of hands‑on experience who operates at a level of mastery that leaves Commvault support engineers in awe. This role is for someone who thrives in complex environments, understands systems and networks at a granular level, and can architect and troubleshoot backup solutions with surgical precision.

You'll be the go‑to expert for all things Commvault, with deep knowledge of Windows Server and RHEL, networking, routing, and firewall configurations, and a strong grasp of automation using Ansible.

Some of the things you'll be doing:

• Architect, implement, and maintain enterprise‑grade Commvault backup and recovery solutions across physical and virtual infrastructures.
• Act as the highest‑level escalation point for Commvault‑related issues, often resolving challenges faster and more effectively than vendor support.
• Design and optimize backup policies, storage targets, deduplication strategies, and disaster recovery workflows.
• Perform deep‑dive troubleshooting across OS layers (Windows/RHEL), storage subsystems, and network paths to ensure data integrity and performance.
• Collaborate with infrastructure, security, and application teams to align backup strategies with business continuity goals.
• Lead Commvault upgrades, patching, and performance tuning initiatives.
• Develop and maintain documentation, runbooks, and automation scripts for backup operations.
• Mentor junior engineers and contribute to technical leadership across the organization.

What qualification or skillsets you'll need?

• 8+ years of experience with Commvault in large‑scale enterprise environments.
• Proven ability to diagnose and resolve complex backup issues independently.
• Strong knowledge of Windows Server internals and Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL), including system services, kernel‑level operations, and performance tuning.
• Expertise in networking fundamentals: TCP/IP, routing, VLANs, firewalls, NAT, DNS, and VPNs.
• Experience with storage technologies: SAN/NAS, snapshots, replication, and deduplication.
• Proficiency in Ansible for automation and configuration management.
• Excellent communication and documentation skills.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience integrating Commvault with ServiceNow, monitoring tools, or SIEM platforms.
• Familiarity with backup strategies for virtualized environments (VMware, Hyper‑V, AHV).
• Exposure to compliance frameworks and secure data handling practices.

Why Join Us?

• Work with a team that values technical excellence and autonomy.
• Influence the direction of enterprise data protection strategy.
• Competitive compensation, benefits, and opportunities for growth.
• A culture that respects deep expertise and encourages innovation.
