Job Description

Infrastructure Engineer

Position Description
If it takes seriously complex IT systems to keep your organisational skills challenged, and you’ve never encountered a network you didn’t want to improve, there’s a digital revolution brewing in the UK that could use your talents.

From public service transformation to cutting-edge commercial projects, our work has a wide reach, helping make the everyday easier, for everyone. When you start your CGI story, not only will you be improving people’s lives, you can be sure we’ll do the same for you.

And the even better news? Our friendly team will keep you inspired and will support you to do what you do best, better.

Business is transforming fast. And at CGI, you’ll be at the centre of a digital revolution. As one of the largest independent technology and business services companies in the world, we can deliver exciting opportunities for you to build your career.

Alongside a competitive salary, we offer you access to our share scheme (3% + 3% matching) making you a member not just an employee. You also have the option to benefit from private medical and dental insurance, flexible retirement options, childcare vouchers and a cycle to work scheme.

As for the future? We work as one team, and are a Top 100 employer. Be a successful part of our story and we’ll support you in taking your career anywhere you want it to go.

One of our key critical IT infrastructure programmes, employing over 100 UK based consultants, is looking for Systems Engineers to join the Gloucester based team developing truly Enterprise scale Cloud infrastructure solutions. We are one of the few programmes within the UK that develop infrastructure Solutions at such scale and complexity.

Our roles are only available if you hold or fulfil the criteria to obtain a UK Security Clearance.

Your future duties and responsibilities
Our Engineers work in a supportive team environment, where initiative and continuous technical development is encouraged.

Whatever your current level of experience, the technical breadth of the programme offers the ability to extend and deepen your skill set, where training is delivered through a combination of mentoring, on-line and classroom based courses via our technical partners.

CGI rewards progression through regular performance reviews, and shares financial success through profit related pay and share schemes. CGI actively supports the social side of work through its vibrant Sports and Social club, and through funding of events that individual teams are able to organise for themselves.

Our operating model is to work with new client requirements to design and build virtualised environments, and thereafter to provide a ‘business as usual’ service to maintain and enhance the delivered business critical systems.

You will have the opportunity to work across all elements of this lifecycle, building your technical competence and client facing skills.

Required qualifications to be successful in this role
Successful candidates will have an excellent understanding of cloud and virtualisation concepts, have OS sysadmin experience and ability to automate through a range of tools and languages.
