Infrastructure Engineer
Glasgow | £35,000 - £40,000 | Permanent
Consultant
Lewis Paterson
Scotland
We're working with a large scale organisation in Glasgow currently going through an ambitious digital transformation - modernising their infrastructure estate and moving from a heavily onprem setup to a more scalable, cloud first model. As part of this evolution, they're hiring a 3rd Line Infrastructure & Network Engineer with strong Microsoft experience to support and lead key projects across Azure, Intune, and endpoint security.
This role is ideal for someone who thrives in a hands on technical environment and enjoys balancing BAU escalations with impactful project delivery. You'll play a key role as part of a small internal IT team, working closely with first line support, key stakeholders across the business, and external vendors to help deliver a wide range of infrastructure improvements.
From migrating to Azure AD and Intune, to rolling out Defender across the business and helping push toward Cyber Essentials Plus and ISO 27001 compliance - there's a lot going on, and you'll be in the thick of it. Alongside cloud migration work, you'll also be involved in troubleshooting server side issues, maintaining core infrastructure services, and making sure everything runs smoothly behind the scenes.
Responsibilities:
You'll support and lead 3rd line infrastructure activities across onprem and cloud services, resolving escalated issues while contributing to a variety of internal projects. You'll work within an ITIL aligned environment, helping improve system performance, network reliability, and cyber security posture. Collaborating across support functions and with senior leadership, you'll take ownership of your technical space - from endpoint security to server virtualisation and cloud platform improvements.
It'd be great if you have…
- Strong Microsoft ecosystem knowledge; Azure AD, Intune, Entra, O365, Endpoint Manager
- Experience supporting server platforms (Windows Server, Exchange, SharePoint)
- Virtualisation (VMware, Hyper V, or Proxmox) and scripting (PowerShell)
- Solid networking knowledge - DNS, DHCP, routing, firewalls, web filtering
- Exposure to cloud migrations, ideally Azure (some AWS experience also fine)
- Experience supporting enterprise platforms like IIS & SQL
- Familiarity with compliance standards (ISO 27001, Cyber Essentials, NIST)
- Excellent problem solving and communication skills
There's no on call requirement, though some flexibility around out of hours work may occasionally be needed. This is a genuinely varied and collaborative environment - one where you can roll up your sleeves and get involved in modernising systems that underpin the wider business.
In return, they're able to offer a salary of around £40,000 depending on experience, with a bonus, pension, 28 days' holiday plus public, and hybrid working. The business has offices across the globe, but this role is based in Glasgow (typically three days in the office each week - a little more at the beginning during onboarding).
If you're a technically capable infrastructure engineer ready to take on cloud first transformation projects, we'd love to hear from you. Apply now or get in touch with Lewis at Cathcart Technology for more information.
