Senior Systems Engineer

Role Purpose


The Senior Cloud & Backup Infrastructure Engineer will lead the implementation of Veeam Backup for Microsoft Azure v8.1 , replacing native Azure Backup across multiple commercial and Azure Government tenants and regions . The role is responsible for delivering a unified, enterprise-grade backup and recovery platform integrated with Veeam Backup & Replication (VBR) and VeeamONE , including centralized reporting and incident management integration with the organization's existing ServiceNow platform .


Key Responsibilities

Technical Leadership & Delivery

• Design and implement Veeam Backup for Microsoft Azure v8.1 across multiple Azure tenants (Commercial and Azure Gov).
• Replace native Azure Backup with a centralized, policy-driven Veeam solution.
• Integrate Azure backup workloads with Veeam Backup & Replication (VBR) for hybrid backup management and recovery operations.
• Integrate VeeamONE for centralized monitoring, reporting, alerting, and operational visibility.
• Configure and validate VeeamONE-ServiceNow integration for incident generation, event correlation, and operational workflows.

Platform Scope

• Protect and validate backups for:
  • Azure IaaS virtual machines
  • SQL Server workloads (VM-based and Azure PaaS)
  • SAP HANA workloads
  • Azure File Shares
• Design scalable architectures aligned with enterprise security, compliance, governance, and cost-optimization standards.
• Implement immutable backup configurations and centralized reporting across environments.

Operational Readiness

• Define and implement centralized backup policies, retention schedules, and tiering strategies.
• Configure standardized reporting for compliance, capacity, SLA adherence, and operational health.
• Perform backup and restore validation for key business-critical workloads.
• Produce as-built documentation , operational runbooks, and architecture diagrams.
• Conduct knowledge transfer and operational handoff sessions with internal engineering and support teams.

Deliverables

• Fully deployed and operational Veeam Backup for Microsoft Azure v8.1 platform.
• Integrated VBR and VeeamONE solution with centralized management and monitoring.
• Configured VeeamONE reporting and ServiceNow incident integration .
• Centralized backup policies and retention schedules across tenants and regions.
• Validated backup and restore testing for critical workloads.
• As-built documentation and operational knowledge transfer.

Required Qualifications & Experience
