Role Overview The System Engineer – Virtualization is responsible for the management and operations of THE CLIENT's VMware-based hyperconverged infrastructure, the shared storage that underpins it, and the on-premise Active Directory and Exchange services that run on it. This is a hands-on operations role covering both the virtualisation platform and the core Microsoft directory and messaging services.
Three positions are being established in Mexico. The team supports two separate Active Directory instances — one for THE CLIENT and one for Kanpak — in a hybrid Exchange configuration.
Key Responsibilities
- Management and operations of VMware-based hyperconverged infrastructure.
- Management of shared storage on Client storage appliances.
- Configuration, management and operations of local domain controllers.
- Exchange administration through Exchange Online.
- Administration of a hybrid Exchange environment with on-premise Active Directory, maintaining separate instances for both THE CLIENT and Kanpak.
- Out-of-the-box monitoring for the VMware estate.
Environment & Engagement Context
- There is currently no plan to merge the THE CLIENT and Kanpak Active Directory instances; the successful candidate should expect to administer both as distinct environments on an ongoing basis.
- There is an ongoing project to migrate the Kanpak Office 365 tenant into the THE CLIENT Office 365 tenant. Familiarity with tenant-to-tenant migration will be valuable during this period.
- Monitoring of the VMware estate is currently limited to out-of-the-box capability rather than a bespoke or deeply integrated toolset.
