  • Work closely with project managers, security teams, and customer stakeholders to ensure solutions are aligned to agreed design principles, standards, and governance requirements
  • Support change execution through the preparation, rehearsal, and implementation of changes within controlled project and operational environments
  • Produce and maintain accurate technical documentation, including configuration baselines, as-built records, network diagrams, test results, and support handover material
  • Contribute to technical workshops, design reviews, and customer discussions, with the confidence to explain technical decisions clearly and credibly
  • Understand how network infrastructure integrates with wider platform components, including compute and storage environments built on VMware, Nutanix, and Hyper-V

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
