Your work profile

 

We are seeking an experienced SDDC Engineer to operate and optimize our software‑defined data center stack across compute (vSphere), network (NSX‑T), storage (vSAN/SAN/NAS), and data protection (backup/DR). You’ll drive reliability, performance, security, and automation for mission‑critical private/hybrid cloud workloads, collaborating with platform, security, and application teams.

Key Responsibilities

SDDC Platform Operations

Automation & Observability

  • Automate provisioning/operations using PowerCLI, Ansible, Terraform/Aria Automation (vRA), vRO, and API/CLI.
  • Implement monitoring and alerting via Aria Operations (vROps), Aria Operations for Logs (vRLI), Splunk/Elastic, Prometheus/Grafana; define SLIs/SLOs and create runbooks.
  • Maintain CMDB/asset inventories, diagrams, SOPs, and knowledge base articles.

Operations Excellence

  • Provide L2/L3 support; lead incident/problem/change processes (ITIL).
  • Partner with network, security, storage, DB, and app teams; participate in on‑call/rota as required.
