Storage & Backup Infrastructure Engineer

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The posting includes job details: Position, Duration, Location, Pay Rate, Hybrid schedule, Hiring requirements, Daily tasks, Responsibilities, Required experience/skills, Benefits. We must not repeat job title as heading. Use

for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide which sections have content. We have: - About the role: could be description of role (Senior Data Platform Administrator accountable...). That's a prose. - Responsibilities: list of responsibilities. - Requirements/Qualifications/Skills: we have required experience/skills. Could combine into Requirements or Qualifications. The instruction: prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. So maybe combine Requirements and Skills into one section "Requirements". Or separate if distinct. We have required experience/skills list; we could put under "Requirements". Could also have "Skills" but maybe not needed. - Benefits: we have benefits list. - Pay: we have Pay Rate: $74.00 per hour (W2 ONLY). So include Pay section. - Schedule: we have Hybrid: Must work ONSITE MON-THUR (Onsite interview required). Also Duration: 12+ Months (On-going Contract). Location: HYBRID - Greensboro, NC 27409. Could include Schedule section with hybrid schedule and maybe duration? The instruction: include Schedule section only if posting actually states them. It does state hybrid schedule. So we can include Schedule. We must not include Job ID/ref number as heading; fold minor metadata into short

or drop it. So we can include a short paragraph with Position, Job Ref #, Duration, Location maybe. We must not include boilerplate like "Please APPLY online..." etc. Remove that. We must not repeat job title as heading. So we won't have heading "Storage & Backup Infrastructure Engineer". We'll just have content. We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep all details: daily tasks list, responsibilities list, required experience/skills list, benefits list, pay rate, hybrid schedule, duration, location, hiring requirements (no third party, local candidates only). Also note "NOT accepting any 3rd Party C2C candidates for any reason" and "NOT accepting candidates willing to relocate (LOCAL CANDIDATES Only)". Should be included. We need to format lists with

• . Use

  for prose. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown. Let's craft:

  About the role

  Senior Data Platform Administrator is accountable for the reliable operation, lifecycle management, security, resilience, and continuous improvement of enterprise storage, data-protection, monitoring, automation, and supporting infrastructure-service platforms for the environment.

  Maybe also include position info? Could be in same paragraph: "Position: Storage & Backup Infrastructure Engineer. Job Ref #: 45042. Duration: 12+ Months (On-going Contract). Location: HYBRID - Greensboro, NC 27409." But we must not repeat job title as heading, but we can include it in paragraph. That's fine. But we need to avoid duplication: The job title appears in the posting; we can include it in paragraph. We'll include a short paragraph with position, ref, duration, location. Then

  Responsibilities

  with
  list of responsibilities (the bullet points under RESPONSIBILITES INCLUDE:). Need to preserve each bullet. Then

  Requirements

  with
  list of required experience/skills. Then

  Benefits

  with
  list of benefits. Then

  Pay

  with

  Pay Rate: $74.00 per hour (W2 ONLY)

  Then

  Schedule

  with

  Hybrid: Must work ONSITE MON-THUR (Onsite interview required). Duration: 12+ Months (On-going Contract). Location: HYBRID - Greensboro, NC 27409.

  But we already included location/duration in about role paragraph; maybe we should not duplicate. Better to keep location/duration in About the role paragraph, and Schedule just about hybrid onsite requirement. But schedule section should contain schedule info; we can include hybrid onsite requirement. Duration maybe not schedule. But we can include duration in About the role. Let's decide: About the role paragraph includes position, ref, duration, location. Then Schedule section includes hybrid onsite requirement. We also need to include hiring requirements (no third party, local only). Where to put? Could be in Requirements section as a note, or separate paragraph under Requirements. Probably include as a bullet under Requirements. Let's extract required experience/skills list: - 10+ years of progressive enterprise infrastructure experience. - 5+ years administering enterprise SAN, NAS, or block-storage platforms - 5+ years administering enterprise backup/recovery platforms. - Advanced experience with one or more Dell Technologies platforms such as PowerStore, Isilon/OneFS, Avamar, or Data Domain - Advanced Cisco SAN switching/NX-OS experience. - Strong knowledge of zoning, provisioning, replication, storage networking, performance, capacity, lifecycle, and recovery validation. - Experience with infrastructure monitoring and event-management capabilities, such as Icinga, Grafana, or comparable monitoring platforms. - Experience with automation, scripting, or configuration-management tools such as Ansible or comparable infrastructure tooling. - Working knowledge of enterprise operating systems and compute platforms: VMware vSphere, Windows Server, Linux, Cisco UCS, Nutanix, and AWS; VMware vSphere administration experience. Any storage and backup integrations, is strongly preferred. - Experience with ITSM, 24x7 operations, change control, patching, vulnerability remediation, major incidents, and RCA. - Strong preparation and presentation skills for upper Management Levels as well as stakeholder’s status reports Also hiring requirements: NOT accepting any 3rd Party C2C candidates for any reason; NOT accepting candidates willing to relocate (LOCAL CANDIDATES Only). We'll add as bullet points under Requirements. Now responsibilities list from RESPONSIBILITES INCLUDE: - Own SAN, NAS, block-storage, backup, monitoring, automation, and infrastructure-service operations, lifecycle, availability, and technical standards, including platform decommissioning. - Lead incident response, troubleshooting, RCA, backup/recovery validation, vulnerability remediation, and service restoration for assigned platforms. - Perform and coordinate hands-on data-center infrastructure work for assigned platforms, including hardware installation and removal, rack/stack, cabling, diagnostics, parts replacement, RMA activity, remote hands, vendor coordination, and technical decommissioning. Plan and execute storage and backup upgrades, capacity and performance reviews, replication, recovery tests, and corrective actions. - Administer monitoring and event-management capabilities, alert quality, automation, scripting, configuration-management tools, version control, and storage-related AWS services; coordinate storage and backup integrations with operating systems, database systems, directory services, virtualization platforms, security tools, and applications. Administer and maintain platform-specific access controls for assigned infrastructure in accordance with security and access-management processes. - Provide technical oversight of vendor/MSP support concerns and project delivery, including case initiation, troubleshooting coordination, escalation, resolution validation, validation of changes and operational deliverables, and communication of service concerns to management. - Maintain runbooks, architecture documentation, evidence, cross-training, and secondary coverage for compute recovery and DR exercises. Also daily tasks list under DAILY TASKS: maybe we could incorporate into responsibilities or separate? The instruction: Use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Daily tasks is a list of duties. Could be part of Responsibilities or separate section. But we already have Responsibilities; we could merge daily tasks into responsibilities. However we need to preserve all substantive information; we can include daily tasks as part of responsibilities list. But we have separate responsibilities list; we could add daily tasks as additional bullets under Responsibilities. That would preserve. Let's list daily tasks: - Provide hands-on engineering leadership across Dell Technologies storage and data-protection platforms, Cisco SAN switching and NX-OS, infrastructure monitoring, automation and scripting tools, and storage-related AWS services. - Provides backup and recovery validation, storage capacity and performance, monitoring quality, support of disaster-recovery exercises, and support tooling not assigned to the compute role. - Provides secondary coverage for compute recovery, storage integration, and disaster-recovery exercises within global standards, ITSM controls, vulnerability and patch programs, and governance expectations. We'll add these as bullets under Responsibilities. Now Benefits list: - EPO/PPO Medical Plans - HMO/PPO Dental programs - Vision - VSP (Vision Plan Summary) - 401K Retirement vesting program (VOYA) - Paid Bi-Weekly/Direct Deposit - Flex Spending Plan - Voluntary Life, AD&D, STD or LTD plans Now Pay: $74.00 per hour (W2 ONLY) Schedule: Hybrid: Must work ONSITE MON-THUR (Onsite interview required) We also have location and duration already in About the role paragraph. Now we need to ensure we don't include boilerplate like "Please APPLY online..." etc. Remove. Now produce HTML. Let's craft:
