Storage Engineer

Storage Engineer

Duration:12 months

Location: New York City, NY (100% onsite role)

Must have Skills: PowerEdge Rack, Tower ,VMware, vSphere, legacy HP, Power Edge, Dell , OME,

Project Tasks:
The ideal resident will have a strong PowerEdge infrastructure background combined with solid VMware experience particularly with exposure to migration environments.

While the individual servers are not inherently complex, the engagement involves a large-scale infrastructure transition from legacy HP servers to a Dell PowerEdge environment, with the Dell delivery team responsible for the deployment and implementation of over 300 systems. The primary challenge lies in the scale, coordination, and day 2 operational impact of executing this high-volume rollout within an active enterprise environment.

OpenManage Enterprise (OME) experience is highly preferred, including:
o Deployment and implementation
o Managing large-scale environments

The migration landscape includes:
o Primarily VMware-to-VMware migrations (vSphere 7 on legacy HP infrastructure to newer vSphere environments)
o Some Hyper-V to VMware migrations, managed by a separate subcontractor team

Scope of the resident role:
o Provide infrastructure support, guidance, and stability throughout the deployment and migration effort
o Maintain awareness of migration activities and processes, but not serve as the primary executor
o Support the environment and assist as needed, without being responsible for leading migrations

Overall, the resource should be able to:
o Operate effectively in a large, complex enterprise environment
o Support a high-visibility, large-scale deployment
o Demonstrate familiarity with migration tools, methods, and challenges
