Virtualization & Private Cloud (Support-Level)
- Support virtualization platforms such as VMware or Hyper-V in line with existing designs.
- Assist senior engineers with private cloud environments (e.g. OpenStack, KVM, or VMware vCloud).
- Help configure and support Proof of Concept (POC) servers for testing and validation.
Cloud Migration & Projects
- Assist with cloud-to-on-prem migration activities (e.g. AWS), following defined plans and procedures.
- Support small infrastructure projects or defined work packages under supervision.

- Monitor system performance and report issues or capacity concerns to senior team members.
- Assist with basic automation or scripting tasks where required (e.g. PowerShell or Python).
- Help identify gaps or improvement opportunities in existing configurations and processes.
Documentation & Compliance
- Maintain clear and accurate technical documentation for systems, changes, and procedures.
- Follow security policies, standards, and operational guidelines at all times.
Collaboration & Communication
