You're the expert. We'll make sure the mission knows it.

At D2 Tech Services, a VDI Engineer isn't just a support role — you're the SME who keeps a large-scale, globally accessed virtual desktop environment running at mission speed. Your architecture decisions and Tier 3/4 expertise will directly shape how intelligence professionals do their jobs every day.

We're looking for a motivated self-starter with deep Citrix expertise, a passion for operational excellence, and the clearance to work where it counts. If that's you, we have an immediate opening and we're ready to move.

What you'll own

You'll operate as the go-to authority on VDI across complex, multi-stakeholder production environments — designing, optimizing, and resolving issues no one else can.

  • Architect, design, and maintain a large, globally accessed virtual desktop environment
  • Serve as the organization-wide SME for diagnosing and resolving VDI performance issues
  • Provide Tier 3/4 escalation support to system administrators across the enterprise
  • Optimize desktops for platform interoperability and act as liaison between VDI technologies
  • Drive process automation and improvement initiatives to reduce operational overhead
  • Manage identity lifecycle across the VDI environment
  • Conduct trade studies and make "build vs. buy" recommendations with confidence
  • Apply deep technical expertise across disciplines and operate in complex, multi-stakeholder production environments

Must-haves

  • Active TS/SCI clearance
  • 5 years of progressive VDI experience (Administrator through Senior Engineer), with a B.S. degree or equivalent
  • Hands-on experience with Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops v7.15 and later
  • Citrix Provisioning Services (PVS) and Machine Creation Services (MCS)
  • Citrix Cloud Virtual Apps and Desktops (CVAD)
  • Citrix NetScaler / ADC / VPX
  • Citrix Workspace Environment Management (WEM) and App Layering
  • Liquidware Profile Unity
  • Hyper-V and VMware VDI experience
  • Familiarity with HP AnyConnect and Leostream
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills — you'll work across teams and stakeholders at all levels

Strong differentiators

  • Experience managing Windows Server clustering
  • Infrastructure as Code exposure: Terraform, Ansible, or similar
  • System Center Virtual Machine Manager (SCVMM) or VMware vCenter 6.7
