Job Description

Job Summary: We are seeking an experienced Systems Engineer to handle the logical build, provisioning, and configuration of data center servers following their physical installation. This on-site role focuses on logical server provisioning, virtualization, network connectivity configuration, and operational support. The engineer will perform base server builds, manage virtualized environments, and prepare systems for handoff to application teams without requiring physical data center floor work.
Core Responsibilities:
  • Perform base builds and logical configuration of servers following hardware installation.
  • Configure IP addressing, VLANs, network interface card (NIC) bonding, and connectivity within Cisco-based networking environments.
  • Validate server configuration, hardware visibility, and network connectivity while applying standardized build templates.
  • Prepare servers for application deployment and testing by downstream teams.
  • Deploy, manage, and troubleshoot VMware vSphere environments, including ESXi and vCenter.
  • Provision and maintain virtual machines while optimizing compute capacity, performance, and availability.
  • Support VMware High Availability (HA), Distributed Resource Scheduler (DRS), backup, and disaster recovery processes.
  • Coordinate firmware and BIOS updates, support server lifecycle management, and assist with vendor hardware remediation activities.
  • Automate routine operational tasks using scripting languages and version-controlled tools.
  • Monitor compute and virtualization platforms while participating in incident response and root cause analysis.
  • Maintain technical documentation and follow established corporate change management procedures.
  • Support both Windows and Linux server operating systems.
Required Qualifications & Skills:
  • Four or more years of experience supporting data center compute infrastructure.
  • Hands-on proficiency with VMware vSphere, ESXi, and vCenter.
  • Practical experience working within Cisco networking environments, specifically with VLANs, IP configuration, and NIC teaming or bonding.
  • Strong fundamental understanding of server hardware, firmware, and overall system lifecycle management.
  • Core system administration experience with Windows Server, Linux, or both operating systems.
  • Experience utilizing Git or equivalent version control platforms.
  • Experience with scripting and automation tools such as PowerShell, Bash, or Python.
  • Solid knowledge of high availability, data backup, and disaster recovery concepts.
  • Native or bilingual proficiency in the English language.
