  • Strong Windows Server and core infrastructure experience.
  • Hands-on experience with Veeam backup solutions.
  • Experience patching and maintaining HA environments.

  • Solid troubleshooting and problem-solving skills.
  • Experience in regulated or professional services environments is advantageous.

Why You Should Apply:
