We're after someone with robust Cloud VDI / End-User Computing (EUC) background across any leading hyperscaler or enterprise VDI technology stack, whether that's Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops, VMware/Omnissa Horizon, Microsoft Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD), Amazon WorkSpaces, or Workspot.
Currently built on an IaC-first foundation within AWS, the platform has a forward-looking roadmap that includes incorporating physical/bare-metal hardware, adopting emerging AWS services, and extending coverage into Azure and GCP over the coming six-plus months
Responsibilities

- Plan, deploy, and maintain Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) / End-User Computing (EUC) solutions across major hyperscaler or enterprise-grade VDI technologies
- Establish and sustain CI/CD automation leveraging GitHub Actions to simplify infrastructure rollout and operational tasks
- Leverage AI coding assistants and agents, including GitHub Copilot or Claude, to speed up IaC creation, issue resolution, documentation work, and automation efforts
- Investigate and incorporate AI-powered operational capabilities,
such as anomaly detection, automated remediation, or smart runbooks, into platform engineering workflows
- Work in close coordination with one fellow team member and relevant customer stakeholders to guide platform-related decisions and priority-setting
- Contribute to advancing the platform's growth plans, including rolling out physical/bare-metal infrastructure and broadening reach into Azure and GCP
Requirements
- At least 5 years of applicable background in cloud native development
- A minimum of 2 years spent in Senior, Lead, Manager, or Owner-level capacities
- Demonstrated history overseeing engagements for teams comprising 5 or more full-time staff
- Extensive practical background with Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI), spanning platforms such as Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops, VMware/Omnissa Horizon, Microsoft Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD), Amazon WorkSpaces, or Workspot
- Strong background building and sustaining Infrastructure as Code via Terraform, including handling remote state through HashiCorp Cloud Platform (HCP)
- Proven capability owning the complete infrastructure lifecycle, covering provisioning, upgrades, decommissioning, drift detection, and operational upkeep
- Background using GitHub Actions to construct and oversee CI/CD pipelines
- Comfortable applying AI coding assistants and agents, such as GitHub Copilot or Claude, to accelerate IaC development, troubleshooting, documentation, and automation work
- Experience with, or strong enthusiasm for,
incorporating AI-driven operational capabilities such as anomaly detection, auto-remediation, or intelligent runbooks into platform engineering
- Fluent English communication abilities at a B2 level or above
