About the Client

Our client is a global leader in designing, building, and operating advanced data center infrastructure. They believe in revolutionary innovation, operational excellence, and creating an environment where talented people come together to evolve the digital world .

They view innovation not just as technology, but as the people, culture, and purpose behind it. Every team member contributes to a mission greater than themselves : powering the future of AI, cloud, and enterprise data systems at scale.

The Role : Systems Engineer

We are seeking a senior-level Systems Engineer to join the Enterprise Applications and Services team of one of our top data center clients. This is the most senior engineer role in the group—replacing a “rock star” engineer—and requires someone with exceptional technical depth, architectural vision, and the ability to deliver automation at scale.

As a Systems Engineer, you’ll architect solutions, tie disparate systems together with code, and build automations that eliminate manual work across the enterprise. Your work will directly influence how this client scales sustainably, powering some of the most advanced data center and AI environments in the world.

What You’ll Do

• Architect automation solutions : take repetitive, manual tasks (, recurring Jira tickets) and design scalable automations using PowerShell, APIs, and integrations.
• Integrate complex systems : tie together Windows, Linux, and VMware environments to create seamless, repeatable workflows.
• Scope and deliver projects independently, setting clear goals and executing with minimal oversight.
• Build and maintain enterprise integrations , ensuring scalability, reliability, and compliance with security best practices.
• Provide dashboards, documentation, and project updates to IT management.
• Collaborate with stakeholders to understand business workflows and design automation to support them.
• Serve as a technical leader within the team, setting standards for scripting, automation, and architectural design.
• Participate in on-call rotation (approx. once every 7 weeks as backup to admins).

What We’re Looking For

We want someone who thrives in solving complex challenges with code, thinks like an engineer (not just an admin), and can step into a senior role with confidence and technical credibility.
