Exciting Opportunity: Lead Infrastructure Engineer
Overview
Location: Sydney, Hybrid with site visits
Job type: Full-time, permanent | Reports to CTO
Join a fast-growing consultancy partnering with some of the world’s biggest tech companies and exciting start-ups. This is a stand-alone role where you’ll take full ownership of networks, systems, and infrastructure in office across a variety of client environments. As the division grows, the role has genuine potential to evolve into a Director level role, with possible partnership opportunities.
What you’ll do
- Design and manage multi-site networks (Ubiquiti UniFi + mixed vendor gear)
- Manage virtualization (Proxmox/VMware/Hyper-V) and basic cloud services (AWS)
- Support Windows/macOS endpoints and mobile fleets (MDM for iOS/Android)
- Operate identity and email platforms (Google Workspace, Okta, etc.)
- Keep infrastructure secure: MFA everywhere, patching, hardening, incident response
- Automate where practical, maintain documentation, and contribute to roll-outs
What you bring
- 5+ years in a network/sysadmin or IT operations role with real production ownership
- Strong multi-site networking experience (UniFi or similar: VLANs, VPNs, L2/L3)
- Solid Linux and Windows Server administration
- Security mindset: backups, patching, restore testing, hardening
- Hands-on scripting/automation (bash, PowerShell, or similar)
- Clear communicator who can explain tech to both engineers and non-tech stakeholders
Nice to have
- POS networking in retail/hospitality, A/V and digital signage
Why apply?
You’ll work across diverse environments and technologies, have the autonomy to improve systems, and receive training and certs to grow your skills. This is a chance to step into a lead role and shape how infrastructure is designed and delivered.
If you’re a hands-on engineer with the skills and drive to lead infrastructure end-to-end, we’d love to hear from you!
