This role is ideal for someone with a strong VMware background, complemented by general Wintel experience, and a willingness to support broader infrastructure operations. Additional skills that are beneficial include experience with Dell and HPE infrastructure solutions, such as VxRail, basic scripting knowledge (PowerShell or PowerCLI) for system management, and Microsoft certifications (e.g., MCSA, MCSE), although these are not required. Exposure to networking (Cisco or Juniper experience) would also be helpful but not essential. I value experience with backup, disaster recovery, and security best practices.
