Design for high availability, resilience & disaster recovery
Define standards across:
Security hardening & compliance

Backup, monitoring & automation
Work closely with infra, network, security & application teams
Provide technical leadership and mentoring

What You'll Bring

Deep, hands-on expertise in Oracle Linux KVM & OLVM (oVirt)
Strong experience designing enterprise virtualisation platforms
Proven delivery of HLD & LLD documentation
Solid knowledge of:
qemu-kvm, libvirt, VDSM
VM lifecycle, HA & live migration
Strong Linux administration & system hardening
Storage & networking design (SAN, VLANs, bridging, bonding)
