Jarrett is seeking an experienced and versatile infrastructure professional to serve as the primary point of support for all server and network systems — covering hardware, operating systems, virtualization, storage, and network infrastructure. Our server environment is built on Windows Server with virtualization managed through Microsoft Hyper-V.

The ideal candidate is a hands-on technical professional with deep knowledge across server and networking disciplines — someone who can move fluidly between troubleshooting a network switch, provisioning a new virtual machine, tuning storage performance, and planning capacity upgrades.

Key Responsibilities

• Serve as the primary resource responsible for day-to-day administration, support, and maintenance of all server and network infrastructure.
• Manage and maintain Windows Server environments, including physical and virtual machines hosted in Microsoft Hyper-V.
• Support all Hyper-V virtualization operations — VM provisioning, live migration, clustering, snapshots, replication, and resource optimization.
• Administer and optimize enterprise storage arrays, including capacity planning, LUN management, performance tuning, and troubleshooting.
• Design, configure, and maintain network infrastructure including switches, routers, firewalls, and VLANs across LAN/WAN environments.
• Plan and execute server upgrades, hardware refreshes, OS updates, and patching cycles with minimal disruption to operations.
• Monitor infrastructure health using appropriate tools and respond proactively to alerts, performance degradation, and capacity thresholds.
• Develop, maintain, and regularly test backup and disaster recovery procedures for all critical systems and data.
• Troubleshoot and resolve server, network, and storage incidents; document root cause analysis and corrective actions.
• Maintain thorough and up-to-date documentation of infrastructure configurations, network topology, and change history.
• Evaluate and recommend hardware, software, and infrastructure improvements to support organizational growth and reliability goals.
• Coordinate with vendors and third-party service providers for hardware procurement, support contracts, and technical escalations.
• Enforce infrastructure security through patch management, access controls, and adherence to security policies.
• Provide after-hours support for critical incidents and scheduled maintenance windows as required.
