Kingston upon Thames, Greater London, United Kingdom Kingston University Full time

The Role

We are seeking a skilled Cloud Infrastructure Specialist to join our Server and Storage team at Kingston University. As part of our team, you will be involved in cloud operational work, supporting our migration to native AWS. Our team is responsible for the university data centres and cloud, and we are looking for a technician who can self-manage their time and work on projects without micromanagement.

An interest in the cloud and being trained in cloud skills is necessary for the role. At the same time, we will continue to manage a server environment on the premises for the short and near term. The successful candidate needs experience as a sysadmin, Windows and/or Linux, preferably experience with both.

For a full list of areas of responsibility, please refer to the attached job description.

The Person

We are currently beginning our journey into a native AWS cloud environment. Whilst cloud experience is beneficial, we are training and upskilling our existing staff. This role is perfect for someone who wants to gain cloud skills and work operationally.

The ideal candidate will have experience working independently and as part of projects. You must be able to communicate effectively with service owners from all parts of the university, therefore, good communication skills are essential.

Whilst the job description lists various skills, knowledge of Windows or Linux and Cloud will be key to the role. Understanding data centres, hardware, automation, and VMWare is advantageous.

Directorate/Function

Information and Technology Services provides and supports digital services and facilities for students and staff to enable learning, teaching, research and administration. Our key functions are to innovate, implement and support an extensive range of digital services across the University to assist our community access and process information to achieve their goals.

In addition to making a valuable contribution to sustainability across the University, our staff share a high customer service ethic and commitment to continuous improvement.
