Job description

Cloud Infrastructure Engineer - Capacity, Forecasting & Automation

We're looking for a Cloud Infrastructure Engineer with a strong analytical mindset to join a fast-moving cloud capacity engineering team.

This position is ideal for someone who understands infrastructure but also enjoys working with data, building models, forecasting growth, and creating automation that makes infrastructure planning more efficient.

You'll serve as a subject matter expert around cloud infrastructure capacity and work across application development, infrastructure, deployment, operations, procurement, and finance teams.

What You'll Do

Design and support capacity planning solutions for private cloud infrastructure

Build tools that size and forecast infrastructure requirements

Develop models to predict future compute resource requirements

Analyze utilization and performance of compute and storage resources

Support capacity management for VM and container platforms

Forecast data center power, rack, and cooling requirements

Assist with cloud infrastructure architecture and design

Help validate infrastructure designs, bills of materials, and procurement requirements

Partner with compute, storage, and network engineers

Provide recommendations around infrastructure scaling and future growth

Identify opportunities to reclaim unused or underutilized capacity

Analyze capacity thresholds and identify potential infrastructure risks

Support infrastructure budgeting and future technology demand planning

Build and improve automated processes and capacity planning tools

Document planning processes and communicate recommendations across technical teams

What You Bring

3-5+ years of experience in cloud infrastructure, infrastructure engineering, capacity planning, or a related field

Experience with private cloud or enterprise infrastructure

Knowledge of compute platforms, virtualization, storage, and networking

Experience with infrastructure forecasting, modeling, or utilization analysis

Strong analytical and problem-solving abilities

Experience building automation or improving technical processes

Ability to work across application and infrastructure teams

Why This Role?

You won't simply be maintaining infrastructure. You'll help determine how infrastructure should grow, where capacity is needed, how resources are being utilized, and how the organization can plan and spend more efficiently.

If you're an infrastructure engineer who enjoys capacity modeling, forecasting, automation, and solving large-scale infrastructure problems , this role offers an opportunity to work on some very large and complex environments.

GCS is acting as an Employment Business in relation to this vacancy.
