  • Lead storage and backup infrastructure projects, apply best practices, support disaster recovery strategies, and document standard procedures.


Ideal candidate must demonstrate:

  • In-depth knowledge of SAN, NAS, SDS, and ObjectStorage technologies, including configuration, performance tuning, and troubleshooting; proficient in storage protocols such as Fibre Channel (FC), NFS, SMB, and S3.

  • Hands-on experience with enterprise backup solutions (e.g., Veeam, SnapVault) for data protection and disaster recovery, including backup configuration, scheduling, and data restoration.

  • Strong background in on-premises storage infrastructure, including physical and virtualized environments, with familiarity in hybrid cloud integration.

  • Solid understanding of general system administration and solutions architecture principles, including server configuration, storage provisioning, and network integration to ensure robust storage operations.

  • Experience with automation tools like Ansible and Python, and expertise in software-defined solutions such as Microsoft Storage Spaces Direct (S2D) to enhance efficiency and scalability in storage management.

  • Strong troubleshooting and analytical skills to proactively resolve storage issues, analyze usage patterns, and design scalable storage solutions to meet current and future business needs.
