The Opportunity
We are seeking a motivated software developer to join our Private Cloud Platform Team as an Infrastructure Engineer. This role is centered on developing and maintaining existing automation tools (Java / Spring Boot / React / PostgreSQL), for infrastructure automation and reporting. Alongside development work, you will be trained on Nutanix and VMware virtualization platforms, progressively taking on operational support responsibilities as your platform knowledge grows.
This is a hybrid dev-and-infrastructure role by design. In your first year, the majority of your time will be spent on development and automation. As you build competency on our virtualization platforms, your role will expand to include operational support. We're upfront about this because we want someone who's genuinely interested in growing into infrastructure and private cloud, not purely a development role.
Responsibilities:
Develop, maintain, and enhance existing automation platform (Java/Spring Boot backend, React/Tailwind frontend, PostgreSQL)
Design and build automation workflows for infrastructure provisioning, reporting, and operational tooling
Integrate automation platforms with other platforms APIs
Write and maintain unit/integration tests; participate in code review and CI/CD practices
Complete structured training on Nutanix AHV/Prism Central and VMware vSphere/vCenter, working toward relevant certification
Progressively assist with VM lifecycle management, patching cycles, and routine platform maintenance under senior engineer supervision
Support Windows Server and Linux OS environments as operational responsibilities grow
Create and maintain technical documentation, including architecture notes, SOPs, and KB articles
Collaborate with senior infrastructure engineers, network, and security teams
Participate in on-call support rotation once operationally capable, typically after 6 months of platform ramp-up (not a day-one requirement)
Requirements:
2-3 years of professional software development experience
Strong working knowledge of Java and Spring Boot
Frontend development experience with React (Tailwind CSS a plus)
Practical experience with PostgreSQL (schema design, queries, performance basics)
Comfortable with Git-based workflows and CI/CD fundamentals
Genuine interest in infrastructure, virtualization, and private cloud technologies
Willingness to work toward Nutanix and/or VMware certification within the first year
Certifications in Java/Spring, VMware, Nutanix, Linux, or Microsoft technologies are an advantage but not required at time of hire
Exposure to Windows Server or Linux administration (e.g., RHEL, Ubuntu)
Basic scripting experience (PowerShell, Bash, Python)
Prior exposure to virtualization concepts (any hypervisor)
Familiarity with networking fundamentals (VLANs, firewalls, routing)
Awareness of automation tooling (Ansible, Terraform) and ITIL/change management practices
Strong problem-solving and troubleshooting mindset
Excellent teamwork, communication, and time management skills
Strong attention to detail and commitment to code and documentation quality
Fluent in English (verbal and written)
Comfortable operating in a role that blends software development with infrastructure operations
Benefits:
Performance-based annual bonus
Performance rewards and recognition
Agile Benefits - special allowances for Health, Wellness & Academic purposes
Paid birthday leave
Team engagement allowance
Comprehensive Health & Life Insurance Cover - extendable to parents and in-laws
Hybrid work arrangement
