This is your chance to architect solutions at scale, influence strategic decisions, and work alongside some of the sharpest engineering and technical support teams in the industry.

What You Will Do

Lead with Design and Innovation

Architect world-class Virtualisation infrastructure that delivers on performance, scalability, and reliability.

Translate business goals into cutting-edge technical solutions, backed by solid capacity planning and performance alignment.

Stay ahead of the curve by evaluating new technologies and shaping their adoption.

Own the design standards, from hardware and software inventory to future-ready architecture.

Represent platform priorities in major projects, ensuring the right balance of performance, cost, and sustainability.

Guide strategic initiatives and governance to keep our technology roadmap sharp and future proof.

Be the Expert Everyone Turns To

Serve as the go-to authority for VMware, Red Hat OpenShift Virtualisation Engine, and other leading Virtualisation platforms.

Oversee multi-site Virtualisation environments with precision, from provisioning to performance tuning.

Tackle complex challenges head-on, leading incident resolution and implementing proactive measures to keep downtime close to zero.

Anticipate and resolve capacity and performance risks before they become roadblocks.

Drive Operational Excellence

Ensure every element of the Virtualisation stack is monitored, managed, and optimized for efficiency.

Champion continuous improvement from smarter deployments to better user experiences.

Establish strong feedback loops that turn incidents into lasting solutions.

Keep the Knowledge Flowing

Build and maintain gold-standard documentation for architecture, processes, and configurations.

Provide insightful performance, capacity, and utilization reports to inform smarter decisions.

Help enforce policies that protect and standardize systems across the enterprise.

What You Bring

A degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, or equivalent real-world expertise.

Proven experience architecting and optimizing Virtualisation in hybrid cloud environments.

Deep mastery of VMware, Red Hat OpenShift, KVM, or other similar technologies, plus solid computer, networking, storage, and security skills.

Strong capabilities in capacity planning, performance design, and budget inputs.

Exceptional leadership, communication, and problem-solving skills.

Experience with 24 / 7 operations and managing geographically dispersed teams.

Familiarity with DevSecOps practices is a plus since you will be working in a platform services-focused environment.
