Job Summary

We are looking for a Virtual Platform Engineer to design, deploy, and operate VMware-based virtualization, software-defined networking, and software-defined storage platforms across on-premises and hybrid cloud environments. The role covers vSphere, vSAN, NSX, Aria, and Tanzu, with a focus on automation, capacity management, and the practical realities of operating a large VMware estate alongside modern cloud-native workloads.

Design capacity management strategies including right-sizing, reservation, and workload placement.

Operate VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) deployments where applicable, applying lifecycle management, workload domain design, and integration patterns appropriate to the broader hybrid cloud strategy.

Implement and operate VMware integrations with cloud providers (VMware Cloud on AWS, AVS, GCVE).

Build observability for VMware infrastructure including performance, capacity, and compliance.

Lead VMware upgrades, lifecycle management cycles, and security patching across the virtualization estate, planning carefully sequenced rollouts that minimize disruption to dependent workloads.

Troubleshoot complex VMware issues spanning compute, network, and storage layers.

Stay current with VMware product evolution following the Broadcom transition.

Required Qualifications

Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, or a related field.

Five or more years of hands-on VMware platform engineering experience.

Deep expertise in vSphere, vCenter, and ESXi.

Hands-on experience with vSAN and storage policy management.

Experience with NSX-T or NSX-V networking.

Strong PowerCLI scripting skills and experience with automation tooling.

Familiarity with Tanzu Kubernetes Grid or VMware container platforms.

Strong understanding of disaster recovery patterns and SRM.

Strong troubleshooting skills across compute, network, and storage layers.

Excellent communication and collaboration skills.

Preferred Qualifications

VMware Certified Professional (VCP) or VCAP credentials.

Experience with VMware Cloud on AWS, AVS, or GCVE.

Familiarity with VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF).

Experience with Aria Operations / vRealize Operations.
