• Manage servers, networks and storage across our hybrid on-prem and cloud estate to ensure high performance and availability
• Automate deployments and routine tasks with scripting and Infrastructure as Code
• Integrate new IT systems smoothly into our existing infrastructure

• Experience with Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD) or similar virtual desktop solutions, such as Citrix
• Solid knowledge of Microsoft infrastructure platforms, including Windows Server and Intune
• Experience designing and implementing infrastructure solutions
• Scripting and automation skills, e.g. PowerShell – a strong plus
• Excellent problem-solving and communication skills, and fluent English
• The ability to work independently and as part of a team

Your team

You will join Core Services – a team of 8 IT Infrastructure Specialists in Denmark, Poland & India, who work closely together to keep Blue Water Shipping running securely. The team covers a broad technology stack: Azure, Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD), Microsoft Intune and Autopilot in the cloud, alongside on-prem VMware, Windows Server, Citrix and SAN storage.

You will be based at our office in Gdansk, with occasional travel days to our office in Esbjerg.

What we offer

You will join an ambitious IT department in a company in rapid digital development. We value employee well-being – and having fun while we reach our common goals is part of our culture.
