Infrastructure Capacity Planning Engineer | Cloud & Data Center

Our client is expanding its cloud capacity engineering team and is looking for an Infrastructure Capacity Planning Engineer to help plan, analyze, and optimize infrastructure across a large private cloud environment.

The team is responsible for the end-to-end capacity lifecycle - from planning and forecasting through procurement, deployment, utilization, and ultimately reducing or eliminating unused capacity.

What You'll Be Working On

  • Private cloud infrastructure supporting VMs, containers, compute, storage, and network environments
  • Long-range infrastructure forecasting
  • Capacity modeling and utilization analysis
  • Data center power, rack, and cooling capacity planning
  • Infrastructure procurement and capacity validation
  • Resource optimization and reclamation
  • Infrastructure scaling and augmentation
  • Automation of capacity planning processes and tools

Responsibilities

  • Work with application and infrastructure teams to understand future capacity requirements
  • Build forecasting models for long-term infrastructure growth
  • Develop automated tools to improve capacity planning and analysis
  • Measure performance and utilization across deployed compute and storage resources
  • Analyze capacity trends and identify potential risks
  • Recommend infrastructure scaling and optimization strategies
  • Validate infrastructure designs and procurement requirements
  • Partner with compute, storage, and network engineering teams
  • Review bills of materials and infrastructure deliverables
  • Support quotes, funding requests, and procurement tracking
  • Assist finance teams with infrastructure budgeting
  • Maintain capacity planning frameworks and infrastructure inventories
  • Identify opportunities to improve processes, tools, and technologies
  • Communicate capacity findings and recommendations to technical stakeholders

Qualifications

  • 3-5+ years of relevant experience
  • Background in infrastructure engineering, capacity planning, cloud infrastructure, or infrastructure analytics
  • Experience with cloud/private cloud technologies
  • Understanding of compute, virtualization, storage, and networking
  • Experience with forecasting, modeling, utilization analysis, or resource planning
  • Experience automating technical processes or developing planning tools
  • Strong communication and cross-functional collaboration skills

If your background combines infrastructure engineering with data-driven capacity planning, forecasting, and optimization, we'd like to hear from you.
