Infrastructure Architect

We're partnering with a large, complex organisation seeking an experienced Infrastructure Architect to provide technical leadership across its core infrastructure environment.
This role will focus on assessing the current technology landscape, defining future-state architecture and providing practical recommendations across compute, storage, backup, virtualisation and end-user computing.

Key responsibilities

• Provide architecture and technical direction across enterprise compute, storage, backup and virtualisation environments.
• Assess existing backup and recovery capabilities and recommend appropriate future-state solutions.
• Review the current virtualisation environment and evaluate future options, including alternative platforms and approaches.
• Provide architectural guidance across enterprise storage, compute and data protection technologies.
• Assess virtual desktop and end-user computing environments, including potential alternative VDI solutions.
• Develop practical technology roadmaps and recommendations that balance capability, operational requirements, cost and future direction.
• Work closely with technical and business stakeholders to guide infrastructure strategy and key technology decisions.

About you
You'll be an experienced Infrastructure Architect with a strong background across enterprise infrastructure and the ability to operate at both strategic and technical levels.
Ideally, you'll bring experience across:

• Enterprise backup and recovery technologies, with Commvault experience highly regarded.
• VMware virtualisation environments and broader enterprise compute infrastructure.
• Enterprise storage and data protection platforms, with Dell Data Domain experience advantageous.
• Alternative virtualisation technologies, including Hyper-V.
• Citrix, virtual desktop infrastructure and broader end-user computing technologies.
