A leading commodities trading firm is searching for a Principal level Windows/Infrastructure Engineer to join their team. You will sit as the manager’s number two, be expected to proactively offer suggestions for strategic change and have the ability to autonomously deliver major projects.
Much of your work will focus on Windows Server and VMware, and as a result, you will be expected to have strong experience across both. The team is currently working on a number of projects that you will get a chance to work on, including:
* Data Centre move planning, investigation, and execution
* Moving DR management in-house
* Migrating more of their estate to Azure
* Starting to do a lot of work with Kubernetes and Docker
This role offers a great opportunity for someone to upskill in Kubernetes and Linux as neither are a pre-requisite, yet there will be regular chances to work with both.
Our previous placements with this client have spoken very positively about the company culture, highlighting the collaborative/friendly environment and the internal career progression available. After spending 2 to 3 years in one application support team, we have seen hires progress internally to become a DevOps Engineer, Trader, BA, Data Automation Lead, Data Support Manager, Derivatives Analyst, and Developer, demonstrating the variety of routes on offer. These factors have led to my client having some of the best retention rates on the market.
Requirements:
* Windows Server
* VMware
* Strong scripting and automation (any language, more the mindset they are after)
* Demonstrated experience managing/driving major projects independently
* Good seniority for a principal – Autonomy to deliver projects, come with own ideas/suggestions, lead exposure is useful
* Cloud experience, significant preference for Azure
* Active Directory
* Strong storage experience, preferably Pure
* Any industry
* Background: Windows/Infra/Server Engineer with 10+ years experience. Platform/DevOps Engineer would be great but need to be happy doing work like going to data centers to replace hardware.
