Senior Linux Virtualization Engineer

Job Description

A major telecom player is approaching a critical transition phase within its virtualization landscape. Its current platform, based on Red Hat Virtualization , is nearing end of vendor support, while still hosting approximately 30 applications, including 10 highly critical workloads that directly support telecom services

Although the platform is stable, the loss of vendor support introduces significant operational, security, and continuity risks.

At the same time, they have already established a VMware-based target environment, with a structured migration planned over the next 12–18 months.

Objective of the Role
