I'm recruiting for a Senior VMware / VCF Infrastructure Engineer to join a major UK defence programme supporting a high-profile submarine project.

This is a genuinely interesting infrastructure transformation programme, centred around a significant on-premise to cloud migration, with VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) and NSX at the heart of the solution.
