Description


The IT Systems Engineer II at Impulse is responsible for designing, implementing, and optimizing infrastructure platforms that support engineering, manufacturing, and corporate operations. This role independently delivers complex infrastructure solutions and assumes ownership of core platform areas across hybrid datacenter and cloud environments. 

Engineers at this level are expected to move beyond implementation into solution design, automation development, and long-term platform improvement. The Systems Engineer II plays a key role in improving scalability, reliability, and operational efficiency while ensuring infrastructure aligns with organizational security and compliance requirements. 


Responsibilities


  • Design and implement infrastructure solutions aligned with established architectural standards. 
  • Own and maintain core infrastructure platforms such as virtualization, identity, storage, or cloud services. Lead complex system deployments, upgrades, and migrations. 
  • Engineer highly available and resilient systems supporting operational workloads.
  • Evaluate performance and capacity requirements and implement improvements. 
  • Develop and maintain standardized infrastructure configurations. 
  • Improve system consistency across environments through engineering best practices. 
  • Establish deployment patterns and operational baselines. 
  • Reduce configuration drift through structured platform management. 
  • Design and implement automation for provisioning, configuration, and lifecycle management. 
  • Develop reusable scripts and tooling to reduce operational overhead. 
  • Contribute to infrastructure-as-code and configuration management practices. 
  • Improve deployment reliability through automation and validation workflows.
  • Lead resolution of complex infrastructure incidents involving multiple systems. 
  • Perform deep technical analysis to identify systemic issues. 
  • Implement engineering improvements that prevent recurrence. 
  • Support incident response activities requiring cross-team coordination. 
  • Design infrastructure solutions aligned with cybersecurity and regulatory requirements.
  • Implement secure configuration baselines and identity controls. 
  • Support audit readiness through proper system configuration and documentation. 
  • Ensure infrastructure supports controlled and regulated data environments. 
  • Provide technical guidance to administrators and junior engineers. 
  • Collaborate with network engineering, security, and application teams. 
  • Participate in technical planning and infrastructure roadmap discussions. 
  • Contribute to internal engineering standards and best practices. 


Minimum Qualifications



  • Demonstrated experience designing infrastructure solutions independently. 
  • Advanced Windows Server administration and platform knowledge. 
  • Working proficiency administering Linux systems. 
  • Experience designing and operating virtualization environments. 
  • Strong automation and scripting experience (PowerShell required). 
  • Proven ability to troubleshoot complex multi-system issues. 
  • Solid understanding of infrastructure dependencies and networking fundamentals. 


Preferred Skills and Experience


  • 8+ years experience implementing and supporting enterprise infrastructure. 
  • Experience supporting engineering, manufacturing, or lab infrastructure. 
  • Experience integrating on-premises infrastructure with cloud platforms. 
  • Enterprise storage architecture experience. 
  • Familiarity with infrastructure-as-code or configuration management tooling. 
  • Experience operating within regulated or compliance-driven environments.
