My client, a highly reputable New York based Financial Services organisation, is looking to hire an accomplished Systems/Network Engineer, with strong Cloud experience.
This is a fantastic opportunity to take ownership of a range of Systems and Networks projects.
This is an organisation with approximately 300 total staff and you will be joining a lean team of 5 covering Systems, Networks and Cloud, therefore your ability to wear multiple hats and deliver optimal results in an extremely dynamic culture is paramount!
Role Responsibilities:
The organisation has recently brought their technology in-house, removing a third-party outsourced provider (MSP) for its Networking, Infrastructure and Cloud services.
The role requires a strong overall technologist, a jack of all trades across Infrastructure, Cloud and Networks.
Selected tasks will include: Cloud optimization (ideally Azure if possible) (this is a key element of the role), standardization, automation and optimization of systems, networks and cloud and supporting Cisco Meraki, Windows Server and Azure/M365 services.
Desired Skills:
- Ambitious, entrepreneurial, go-getting mindset – proven ability to work in both a hands-on technical capacity and alongside senior stakeholders making complex decisions
- Proven background gained in positions covering Network, Systems and Cloud technology
- Multiple skills across Networks (ideally Cisco Meraki), Infrastructure (Windows Server, M365, Exchange Online, Email Security) and Cloud (Azure/AWS)
- Commercial understanding of Cloud optimization, standardization and automation
- Previous experience of working with or for an MSP and therefore demonstrating multiple skills, highly regarded but not essential
- Proven experience working in heavily regulated environments – essential
- Exceptional communication skills and the ability to communicate effectively with technical and no-technical stakeholders at all levels
- Strong desire to work for an extremely dynamic, fast paced Financial Services firm
