Role Mission

To design, implement, and operate high-availability on-premise and hybrid infrastructure that enables fast, secure software delivery, reduces risk, and drives automation and reliability across development, QA, and production.

Technical Ecosystem

• On-premise and hybrid infrastructure management
• Windows Server and Linux Server administration
• Virtualization: VMware, Hyper-V, Proxmox
• Containerization: Docker
• CI/CD tooling and deployment automation
• Networking: DNS, DHCP, VPNs, firewalls, routing, load balancing
• Monitoring, logging, and performance management
• Scripting: Bash, PowerShell, Python
• Cloud familiarity: AWS, Azure, GCP
• Infrastructure as Code and configuration management: Terraform, Ansible
• Security, patch management, backup, disaster recovery
• Documentation and runbooks

Performance Expectations

• Establish and maintain reliable CI/CD pipelines that accelerate software delivery
• Design, deploy, and maintain on-premise infrastructure with high availability and performance
• Support hybrid environments integrating on-prem and cloud resources
• Automate deployment across development, staging, and production
• Implement IaC and configuration management; improve operational efficiency
• Ensure security hardening, backups, DR plans, and governance; maintain comprehensive documentation
• Monitor, alert, and respond to incidents; improve release velocity and stability

Ideal Persona

• Pragmatic, hands-on problem-solver with strong ownership
• Detail-oriented with an operational mindset
• Comfortable working independently and collaborating cross-functionally
• Effective communicator and documentation-focused
• Customer- and reliability-focused; quality-conscious

Requirement Rationale

• The role requires strong on-premise and hybrid infrastructure capabilities (Windows/Linux admin, virtualization, networking) to design, implement, and operate a reliable stack outside of cloud-only environments.
• Docker and containerization are essential for modern deployment automation, with Kubernetes and broader container orchestration as preferred for scalability.
• Terraform and Ansible (IaC/Config Management) are preferred to codify infrastructure and reduce manual toil.
• Security awareness, patch management, backups, and DR planning are mandatory due to the critical nature of on-prem and hybrid systems.
• Cloud familiarity (AWS/Azure/GCP) is required to support hybrid scenarios and potential cloud integration, even if the core focus is on-premise operations.
