About This Position:

Take your engineering skills to the frontlines of innovation.

  • Assist the virtualization and VDI teams with application delivery infrastructure configuration and optimization.
  • Enhance backup, disaster recovery, and continuity of operations processes.
  • Rapidly produce clear, detailed technical deliverables—including designs, test plans, implementation guides, operational guides, and training materials—within project time and cost constraints.
  • Perform work independently, exercising sound judgment and latitude in determining technical objectives and solutions.
  • Leverage VMware Software Defined Data Center (SDDC) products and tools for troubleshooting, performance tuning, and environment optimization.
  • Analyze, test, and apply regular security patches and software updates to maintain secure operations.
  • Maintain deep, current knowledge of virtualization products and capabilities, applying them to evolving program requirements.
  • Demonstrate strong time management and organizational skills to meet deadlines effectively.
  • Deliver excellent written and oral communication, including technical documentation and peer training.
  • Support incident resolution and fulfill software requests promptly.
