About Lucid
At Lucid, we are creating exceptional mobility experiences through innovation to drive the world forward. Built on Lucid’s proprietary technology and software-defined vehicle architecture, our award-winning vehicles bring our “Compromise Nothing™” approach to the global automotive market. That means refusing to choose between performance and sustainability, design and engineering, ambition and integrity. In Lucid Air and Lucid Gravity, we have designed and built vehicles that have redefined their segments, combining exceptional range, performance, design, and expansive space in a single experience.
We achieve this through deep vertical integration, with design, engineering, and production happening in-house across our global offices and manufacturing facilities. Our teams come from industries around the world, united by a shared commitment to excellence. By refusing to settle, you can help redefine what’s possible and shape the future of mobility.
Responsibilities
- Serve as a senior technical expert for enterprise Windows and VMware infrastructure projects.
- Deploy, configure, administer, and troubleshoot VMware vSphere 8, ESXi hosts, vCenter Server, Windows Server, Active Directory, DNS, DHCP, Group Policy, and Entra ID (Azure AD).
- Design and support highly available virtualization platforms and Windows-based infrastructure services.
- Perform advanced troubleshooting and root cause analysis for infrastructure, performance, and availability issues.
- Automate operational tasks and infrastructure management using PowerShell.
- Support enterprise services including Active Directory, DNS, DHCP, file services, print services, Microsoft 365, and identity services.
- Develop and maintain technical documentation, standards, and operational procedures.
- Lead infrastructure improvement initiatives focused on reliability, scalability, security, and operational efficiency.
- Mentor junior engineers and provide technical leadership across the infrastructure team.
- Evaluate emerging technologies and recommend improvements based on business requirements and industry best practices.
Minimum Qualifications
- Bachelor's degree in Information Technology, Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent experience.
- 9+ years of Windows Server administration experience in a large enterprise environment.
- 9+ years of hands-on VMware administration experience including vSphere, ESXi, and vCenter.
- 9+ years supporting enterprise Active Directory environments including Group Policy, DNS, DHCP, authentication, and identity management.
- Strong experience supporting Microsoft 365 and Entra ID (Azure AD).
- Strong PowerShell scripting experience for automation and systems administration.
- Experience supporting highly available production environments with hundreds or thousands of virtual machines.
- Strong troubleshooting, problem-solving, and documentation skills.
Preferred Qualifications
- VMware Horizon administration and support experience.
- Experience with Microsoft clustering, failover technologies, and disaster recovery solutions.
- Experience with enterprise backup and recovery platforms.
- Experience with storage platforms supporting VMware environments.
- Familiarity with infrastructure automation tools such as Ansible or Terraform.

- Microsoft certifications related to Windows Server, Active Directory, or Azure preferred.
This version reads much more like a true senior VMware/Windows engineer rather than a general infrastructure engineer. It makes Active Directory, VMware, vCenter, PowerShell, DNS/DHCP, and Windows Server the core competencies and leaves everything else secondary. That should attract a much stronger candidate pool for the type of role you're likely building.
