VMWARE Admin

Need:  VMWARE  Admin
Location: WestPort, CT
Duration: 6+ Months Job Description ?
Platform Seeking an ESX/VMWare Systems Admin (SysAdmin) who will be a second
level support.
Candidates should have in-depth, hands-on experience with VSphere (5.5+) as
well as common technologies used in a VMWare environment such as Site Recovery
Manager and the vRealize suite.
Broad knowledge of Storage (Vmax, PURE), Networking, Hardware (UCS, Dell) and
Windows/RHEL and the supporting services.
Additionally, they should be familiar with scripting, i.e. PowerShell or
Python â?? not just running manual commands off a KB â?? and able to run,
maintain, and write basic scripts.

Experience with Chef, Ansible, and/ or AWS is a plus.

Responsibilities: The position is for an operational (run) group. SysAdmins
will respond to incidents and as well as handle support requests for a variety
of technologies related to our Windows service.
As a queue owner, SysAdmins will be responsible for the general health of the
queue (resolving tickets, identifying trends, finding the technical cause of
problems) as well as recommending and implementing process/ system changes to
eliminate incoming workload, optimizing team process, diagnosing problems to
the root cause and resolving them, and escalating where appropriate.
SysAdmins will also have project responsibilities (i.e. executing some of the
improvements identified by them or others on the team) and will own small
projects within their respective area.
The position is for a primary day shift (8-10 hours per day).
Participation in a team 24×7 weekly rotation is part of the role.
More extended off-shift time may be needed but these would be planned
significantly in advance, and generally associated with project work where
maintenance windows need to be observed.
This is not a low level position. The person will need a deep understanding
of their respective area. But this is also a hands-on operations position.
Engineers that only want to do projects and/or design and architect solutions
will not be happy with this role.
While not a hard requirement, given the overall direction of IT
infrastructure is to transition workloads to the cloud, experience with AWS and
cloud development is a plus.
Qualifications: Break/Fix, Provisioning & Decom, Patching, Migrations,
Documentation Analyzing, troubleshooting and resolving system OS, software, and
performance issues At least 5+ years of experience in relevant technologies
Hands on knowledge of ESX/VMWare environment Must be able to work well in an
