Enterprise Storage and Backup Administrator
Location: Remote (Central European Timezone ±2 hours)
Start date: Immediate
Languages: English (fluent)
Industry: International Organizations, Enterprise IT Infrastructure, Storage & Backup
About the Company
Pragmatike is recruiting an Enterprise Storage & Backup Administrator on behalf of a prestigious international organization operating at a global scale. This organization manages critical infrastructure supporting worldwide initiatives, with a strong commitment to sustainability, diversity, and operational excellence.
Their IT ecosystem spans complex, heterogeneous environments, delivering highly reliable storage and backup services across multiple regions and stakeholders.
Your Responsibilities
• Run and optimize enterprise storage and backup platforms across distributed environments
• Provision storage, manage integrations, and configure backup policies (scheduling, retention, recovery)
• Monitor system health, capacity, and performance — and proactively resolve bottlenecks
• Troubleshoot across the stack (storage, SAN, backup, network) and drive incidents to resolution
• Operate and improve SAN environments (Fibre Channel, iSCSI, multipathing)
• Manage and support multi-vendor storage arrays (e.g., 3PAR, Dell, NetApp)
• Administer enterprise backup platforms (e.g., Avamar, Data Domain, NetBackup, Veeam)
• Partner with vendors for hardware lifecycle management and issue resolution
• Contribute to infrastructure automation (Python, Ansible, scripting)
• Support rollout of new storage/backup solutions and infrastructure upgrades
• Produce clear technical documentation and operational runbooks
• Participate in on-call rotations and ensure production reliability
• Step into ownership when needed — including leading operations in the absence of team leadership
What You Bring
• 5+ years operating enterprise storage and backup systems in complex environments
• Deep hands-on experience with multi-vendor storage arrays (HP 3PAR, Dell Compellent, NetApp)
• Strong expertise in enterprise backup ecosystems (Avamar, Data Domain, NetBackup, Veeam)
• Solid understanding of SAN technologies (Fibre Channel, VSAN, WWPN, NPIV, multipathing, iSCSI)
• Experience troubleshooting SAN fabrics (Cisco MDS, Brocade)
• Working knowledge of replication, data protection, and recovery strategies
• Comfort operating in distributed, high-availability environments
• Scripting/automation mindset (Python, Ansible, or similar)
• Strong debugging instincts — you don’t stop at symptoms
• Familiarity with ITIL or structured service environments
• Clear communication and ability to operate across teams and time zones
Nice to Have
• Experience with HCI / Software-Defined Storage
• Exposure to cloud storage (AWS S3, Azure Blob)
• Background in virtualization (VMware, Hyper-V)
• Understanding of disaster recovery architectures
• Experience with reporting, capacity planning, or infra analytics
• Relevant certifications (ITIL, storage vendors, cloud, scripting)
Why This Role Will Pivot Your Career
• You’ll operate infrastructure that actually matters — at global scale
• You’ll work on complex, non-trivial systems (not just maintain them)
• You’ll gain exposure across storage, backup, networking, and reliability
• You’ll have room to automate, improve, and influence how things are built
• Strong potential for long-term engagement
