You'll design, implement, automate and maintain a largely autonomous cleanroom (Ransomware Recovery) environment, enabling the rapid recovery of affected systems into ring-fenced environments where they can be analysed, cleansed and restored to production. You'll protect and recover both application data and infrastructure configuration data across a large estate spanning Europe and the Americas.
What you'll be doing:
- Leading infrastructural improvements in security, recovery and automation
- Day-to-day support of the cleanroom environment, including incident, problem and change management
- Ensuring systems meet security and vulnerability management standards
- Working across compute, converged, storage, backup and archive environments

- Ansible
What we're looking for:
An experienced, versatile engineer and genuine self-starter. You'll be comfortable operating with autonomy, thrive in a small high-calibre team, and bring tangible value from day one. The scope of this role means you'll continually broaden your skills across multiple technologies - ideal for someone who enjoys breadth as much as depth!
