ROLE SUMMARY
As a Virtualisation Patch & Automation Engineer within the Hybrid Cloud Engineering team, you will design and maintain automation solutions supporting the lifecycle management of VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) and vSphere platforms. The role focuses on automating patching, upgrades, compliance, and infrastructure operations across VMware environments, including ESXi, vCenter, NSX, vSAN, and SDDC Manager. Leveraging PowerCLI, Python, Terraform, GitHub, and Infrastructure as Code (IaC), you will develop scalable automation frameworks that improve operational efficiency, security, platform stability, and compliance while collaborating with global engineering and operations teams.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
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.
