Compute Engineer
About this role
About the Role We are looking for an experienced Compute Engineer to own and operate the server, virtualization, and endpoint compute layer that our business runs on. You will keep our physical and virtual servers healthy, design and manage our hypervisor estate, and administer the Microsoft cloud and device management stack (Microsoft Entra ID/Azure AD, Intune, Windows 365). This is a hands-on role at the center of how applications, identities, and devices connect across the organization.
You will set technical direction for the compute environment, lead infrastructure projects end-to-end, and guide other engineers. You will work closely with networking, security, applications, and helpdesk teams to deliver reliable, secure, and scalable compute resources — and you will be a key contributor as we add capacity to support company growth. Key Responsibilities • Architecture & technical leadership: Set technical direction for the compute environment.
Design scalable, resilient server and virtualization architectures, lead infrastructure projects end-to-end, and drive capacity and lifecycle planning. • Standards & guidance: Establish standards and best practices for the team, review work, and guide other engineers. • Server & VM management: Provision, configure, patch, and maintain physical servers and virtual machines (Windows Server and Linux). Monitor health, capacity, and performance, and remediate complex issues.
• Virtualization: Design and administer the hypervisor environment (e.g., VMware vSphere, Microsoft Hyper-V, or equivalent), host management, resource allocation, snapshots, templates, and high availability/clustering. • Microsoft identity & cloud: Administer Microsoft Entra ID (Azure AD), including users, groups, roles, conditional access, and hybrid identity (Entra Connect). Manage integrations and SSO between on-prem and cloud services.
• Endpoint & device management: Manage device enrollment, configuration profiles, compliance policies, and application deployment through Microsoft Intune. Provision and support Windows 365 Cloud PCs. • Application & backend connectivity: Support backend systems and the connections between applications, identity providers, and infrastructure services. Troubleshoot authentication, networking, and integration issues end-to-end.
