Senior Infrastructure Engineer

We’re looking for a hands-on Senior Infrastructure Engineer with strong experience across both Azure and on-premises infrastructure. This is a project-focused engineering role rather than a management position, with responsibility for designing, delivering and supporting complex infrastructure projects from start to finish.

The ideal candidate will have broad, real-world experience across servers, virtualization, networking, storage, identity and cloud environments, with the communication skills to work directly with clients and internal teams.

What You’ll Do

• Design and implement hybrid infrastructure solutions across Azure and on-premises environments
• Lead and deliver server, Active Directory and file server migrations, including DFS/DFSR, replication, coexistence and FSMO roles
• Design and manage Azure IaaS environments, including VNets, NSGs, virtual machines, identity and hybrid connectivity
• Build and maintain VMware and/or Hyper-V environments, including clustering, HA/DRS and storage integration
• Own infrastructure projects through the full lifecycle, from planning and implementation through documentation and handover
• Implement and support VDI solutions, including Citrix DaaS, RDS and Azure Virtual Desktop
• Configure and troubleshoot network infrastructure, including firewalls, switching, VLANs, routing and VPNs
• Deploy and manage SAN/NAS storage, including iSCSI, LUN provisioning and redundancy
• Lead Microsoft 365 and email migrations
• Design and implement backup and disaster recovery solutions
• Produce clear and practical technical documentation
• Work closely with clients and internal teams to troubleshoot issues and deliver projects successfully

What You Bring

• 5+ years of hands-on infrastructure engineering experience
• Strong experience across Azure and on-premises infrastructure
• Solid knowledge of Active Directory architecture and migrations
• Experience with file server migrations, DFS/DFSR, permissions and cutover strategies
• Strong virtualization experience with VMware and/or Hyper-V
• Good understanding of networking fundamentals, including VLANs, routing, firewalls and VPNs
• Experience with backup and disaster recovery technologies such as Veeam, Datto or Azure Recovery Services
• Proven experience delivering infrastructure projects from start to finish
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills
• Strong customer service, problem-solving and interpersonal skills
• Excellent organisation and time management, with the ability to manage multiple priorities
• A collaborative, dependable and hands-on approach

Nice to Have

• Previous MSP experience
• Advanced Azure certifications, such as Azure Solutions Architect
• Additional technical certifications across infrastructure, networking or cloud
• Experience with ConnectWise or similar PSA/RMM platforms

What’s In It For You

• The opportunity to work on varied, technically challenging infrastructure projects
• Exposure to both Azure and complex on-premises environments
• A highly hands-on engineering role with ownership over project delivery
• The opportunity to work across cloud, networking, virtualization, storage and Microsoft technologies
• A client-facing environment where your technical expertise and communication skills will make a direct impact
• Continued exposure to new technologies and opportunities to develop your technical skill set
