You will help modernize traditional infrastructure into reliable, automated platform services that enable application teams to deliver faster and more securely.

  • Own and improve core infrastructure platform services such as Remote Desktop Services (RDS next gen.), automation workflows and operational tooling.
  • Develop automation to reduce manual work, improve repeatability and support infrastructure lifecycle activities such as provisioning, patching, configuration, monitoring and remediation.
  • Contribute to the design and operationalisation of self-service infrastructure capabilities for internal technical teams.
  • Improve reliability through monitoring, alerting, incident response patterns, runbooks, capacity management and resilience practices.
  • Partner with application, cloud, security and infrastructure teams to modernise infrastructure consumption and promote platform standards.


Minimum Qualifications
  • Strong hands-on experience with Microsoft infrastructure technologies such as Windows Server, Active Directory, certificates and related enterprise services.
  • Minimum of 5 years of experience in infrastructure operations, cloud operations, site reliability engineering or a similar technical role.
  • Practical automation experience using PowerShell, Python, YAML, Ansible or equivalent automation frameworks.
  • Experience using Git-based workflows to manage infrastructure as code and automation.
  • Understanding of monitoring, observability, incident response and operational reliability practices.
  • Ability to work collaboratively with cross-functional technical teams and communicate effectively with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • High motivation, teamwork, ownership mindset and results-oriented approach.
  • Bilingualism in French and English required.


Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience administering or supporting OpenShift, Kubernetes, Azure Red Hat OpenShift or similar container platforms.
  • Experience with GitOps practices and tools such as Argo CD.
  • Experience with Terraform or other infrastructure-as-code technologies.
  • Experience with OpenShift Virtualization, VMware migration, virtual machine lifecycle management or hybrid workload modernisation.
  • Experience with Ansible Automation Platform and reusable automation catalogue development.
  • Experience with Prometheus, Grafana, Azure Monitor or similar observability technologies.
  • Knowledge of backup, disaster recovery, resilience engineering, performance and capacity management.
  • Familiarity with ServiceNow integration, operational workflows, ITIL practices or incident management processes.
