From the client recently:

Skills Needed:

  • VMWare - top skill - 100's of machines, needs ESXi experience
  • Wants someone to envision the future state of VMWare

  • Linux is a big skill to have
  • Disaster recovery (plans and testing experience)
  • Servers, HP Blades, Hardware experience
  • Data standards, Storage, Networks (must have these skills)
  • Implementing Veam now, so that would be helpful
  • Azure is a secondary skill set, but helpful
  • Prefer local (just east of Allentown, PA), but will pay hotel expense a few times per month for someone who can drive in
  • Interview - 1st with Manager, 2nd with the team, maybe a 3rd wrap-up call
