About the Role
We are seeking a hands-on Infrastructure Engineer to build and automate modern enterprise infrastructure platforms.
This is an engineering-first role focused on automation, platform build, and scalable system delivery. You will work within an established architecture to deliver infrastructure through code—not operate it through tickets.
What You’ll Do
Build and deploy infrastructure platforms:
VMware and/or Nutanix
Windows and Linux environments
Develop and implement Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) solutions
Automate manual processes through scripting and pipelines
Contribute to infrastructure lifecycle activities:
Deployment, upgrades, scaling, and optimization
Support and build Kubernetes / container environments
Troubleshoot production issues and contribute to resolution
Create and maintain engineering documentation:
Runbooks, LLDs, and handoff materials
Requirements
3–5 years of hands-on infrastructure or systems engineering
Fluent in both written and spoken English language
Experience building and deploying production infrastructure environments
Technical Requirements
Strong hands-on experience with:
Terraform and/or Ansible (you have personally built infrastructure using these tools)
PowerShell, Python, or Bash
VMware and/or Nutanix
Windows and/or Linux
Exposure to:
Kubernetes or container platforms
Must-Have Capabilities
You must be able to clearly demonstrate:
You have personally built and deployed infrastructure (not just supported it)
You have automated repetitive work using code or pipelines
You have worked in code-driven environments (Git, CI/CD)
You can clearly explain what you built vs. what your team owned
What This Role Is NOT
Not a ticket-based or operations role
Not focused on routine system administration
Not a senior-level architecture or platform ownership role
Nice to Have
Experience building or supporting Kubernetes environments
Exposure to storage, backup, or disaster recovery
Experience creating reusable automation or IaC components
How You’ll Be Successful / Bottom Line
You think like an engineer, not an operator—solving infrastructure challenges through code, automating manual work, and building scalable, repeatable systems. You take ownership of what you deliver and can clearly demonstrate what you’ve built and automated in production. This role is for engineers who build infrastructure through code, automate everything possible, and deliver reliable systems at scale.
