Job Description

About the Role

Modern enterprises depend on infrastructure that is resilient, secure, scalable, and continuously available across cloud, on-prem, and hybrid environments. We are seeking an Infrastructure Manager to lead the design, modernization, and operational excellence of a large-scale, mission-critical infrastructure ecosystem supporting global business operations.

This role goes far beyond day-to-day systems management. You will own the architecture, reliability, performance, and security posture of enterprise infrastructure spanning cloud platforms, data centers, networks, storage, compute, and endpoint services. Your mandate is to ensure infrastructure becomes a strategic enabler of growth, innovation, and speed, rather than a constraint.

Partnering closely with Engineering, Security, Enterprise Architecture, and Business Leaders, you will drive infrastructure transformation initiatives, including cloud migration, platform standardization, automation, observability, disaster recovery modernization, and cost optimization. You will lead teams responsible for uptime, scalability, and operational discipline in an always-on, global environment.

This is a high-impact leadership role for an infrastructure professional who understands that stability and innovation are not opposites and who can build systems that scale securely while supporting rapid enterprise change.

Essential Duties and Responsibilities

  • Lead enterprise infrastructure operations across cloud, on-prem, and hybrid environments.

  • Define and execute infrastructure modernization strategies, including cloud migration, platform consolidation, and automation.

  • Ensure high availability, performance, disaster recovery, and business continuity for mission-critical systems.

  • Own infrastructure security posture in partnership with cybersecurity teams, ensuring compliance and risk mitigation.

  • Oversee network, compute, storage, virtualization, and platform services across global environments.

  • Implement monitoring, observability, and incident-management frameworks to improve reliability and response times.

  • Manage infrastructure capacity planning, lifecycle management, and cost optimization initiatives.

  • Establish operational standards, SLAs, and governance for infrastructure services.

  • Lead vendor relationships, contract negotiations, and technology evaluations.

  • Build, mentor, and lead high-performing infrastructure and operations teams.

Job Qualifications and Requirements

  • 10+ years of experience in infrastructure engineering, operations, or platform leadership roles.

  • Proven experience managing enterprise-scale infrastructure in cloud and hybrid environments.

  • Strong background in cloud platforms, virtualization, networking, storage, and enterprise systems.

  • Experience implementing automation, infrastructure-as-code, and modern operational tooling.

  • Demonstrated success in improving reliability, performance, and security in complex environments.

  • Strong understanding of disaster recovery, business continuity, and high-availability architectures.

  • Ability to lead cross-functional initiatives and influence senior technical and business stakeholders.

Personal Capabilities and Qualifications

  • Strategic thinker with a strong execution mindset.

  • Calm, decisive leader during incidents and high-pressure situations.

  • Highly analytical with a focus on root-cause analysis and continuous improvement.

  • Strong communicator able to translate complex technical concepts into tangible business impact.

  • Trusted people leader who develops talent and builds accountability.

  • Comfortable operating in fast-paced, global, always-on environments.

Strategic Support

  • Partner with CIO, CTO, and Enterprise Architecture leaders on infrastructure strategy and roadmaps.

  • Support digital transformation, cloud adoption, and enterprise modernization initiatives.

  • Provide infrastructure insights that inform risk management, capital planning, and growth strategies.

  • Enable product, engineering, and business teams with a reliable and scalable platform.

  • Support M&A integration, system consolidation, and global expansion efforts.

Working Conditions

  • Hybrid work environment with collaboration across global teams and time zones.

  • Occasional travel to data centers, regional offices, and vendor sites.

  • On-call leadership responsibility for critical infrastructure incidents.

  • High-visibility role supporting systems essential to business continuity and customer experience.
