Data Infrastructure Engineer
Location: Greater Manchester, Onsite
Salary: Up to £55K DOE
Stockford Recruitment is working with a fast-growing technology business specialising in infrastructure as they expand their technical team with two new hires.
This isn't your typical desk-based infrastructure role. You'll work hands-on across the full infrastructure lifecycle – building servers from component level, Linux administration, virtualisation, networking, storage, racking, cabling and troubleshooting.
What you'll be doing
- Build, configure and deploy GPU/compute servers
- Rack, cable and commission equipment
- Administer Linux environments – primarily Ubuntu/Debian
- Work with Proxmox, VMs and GPU passthrough
- Support RAID, NVMe, ZFS and LVM storage
- Configure and troubleshoot VLANs, routing, firewalls and networking
- Diagnose hardware, performance and connectivity issues
- Test and benchmark new GPUs and server technology
- Contribute ideas around infrastructure design and improvements
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
What we're looking for
You'll ideally have experience across:
- Linux
- Server Hardware
- Virtualisation
- Networking
- Storage
- Infrastructure Troubleshooting
Experience with GPU/NVIDIA hardware, Proxmox, HPC, Zabbix/Prometheus/Grafana, Bash, Python or Ansible would be advantageous.
For the Senior position, previous experience leading or managing technical team members is required.
Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
Important: You'll need a clean UK manual driving licence, your own transport and be comfortable working onsite in Greater Manchester 5 days a week.
Why consider it?
You'll join a small, growing technical team and get genuine hands-on exposure to high-performance infrastructure, with plenty of opportunity to learn, contribute ideas and take on greater responsibility.
Stockford Recruitment has previously supported this business with two technical hires, both of whom remain with the company and are doing well. These are additional hires as the team continues to grow.
