Essential Duties

Both Systems Administrator - Virtualization Associate and Intermediate roles are responsible for maintaining and optimizing the virtual infrastructure that supports the mission-critical operations of the GCC. You will administer, develop, test, implement, and maintain the virtual operating environment and its related software. This role involves establishing standards between hardware and software, troubleshooting complex systems and networking problems, and recommending upgrades based on performance data. Your work will directly impact the stability, security, and efficiency of our virtualized systems. This position differs from an Operating Systems Programmer as it does not involve altering the operating system's software code.

Design and Implementation:

• Design, deploy, and maintain VMware ESXi hosts, vCenter Server, and virtual machines across multiple sites.
• Collaborate with IT teams to design and implement integrated infrastructure solutions that align with command requirements.
• Implement and manage VMware networking components, including distributed switches and VLANs.
• Schedule, plan, and perform system upgrades, coordinating the transition from test to production environments.
