• Perform advanced diagnostics using Citrix Director, Wireshark, Azure Log Analytics, Power BI, and other monitoring tools to correlate data and uncover systemic performance bottlenecks.
• Analyze and optimize Windows Group Policy (GPO) configurations impacting Citrix environments, ensuring alignment with best practices and minimizing logon delays.
• Investigate network, authentication, profile, and HDX-related performance issues, including proxy/WPAD behavior, drive mapping, and session startup inefficiencies.
• Design and maintain diagnostic methodologies, playbooks, and runbooks to standardize troubleshooting and improve engineering efficiency across teams.
• Mentor and support other systems engineers by sharing expertise, reviewing complex cases, and elevating overall technical capability.
• Leverage AI and automation tools to analyze configuration data, identify patterns, and accelerate root cause identification across large datasets.

Requirements:

• 5+ years of hands-on experience with Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops (XenApp/XenDesktop) in large-scale, multi-site enterprise environments.
• Expert-level understanding of Citrix logon architecture, including session startup, brokering, HDX, authentication, GPO processing, and profile loading phases.
• Strong expertise in Windows Group Policy (GPO) design, troubleshooting, and performance optimization in Citrix environments.
• Experience with performance monitoring and diagnostic tools such as Citrix Director, Wireshark, Azure Log Analytics, and Power BI.
• Strong analytical skills with ability to correlate multi-source data (logs, telemetry, dashboards) to identify complex root causes.
• Experience with FSLogix, Citrix profile management, HDX optimization, and enterprise session tuning is highly desirable.
• Proficiency in scripting (PowerShell or Python) for automation, configuration analysis, and data extraction.
• Familiarity with Azure-hosted Citrix environments, networking concepts, and enterprise proxy configurations (WPAD, auto-proxy).
• Experience mentoring engineers and documenting technical findings into scalable processes or playbooks.
• Citrix CCE-V certification or equivalent deep expertise is a strong plus.

Benefits:

• Competitive compensation aligned with specialized enterprise engineering roles.
• Opportunity to work on high-impact Citrix performance challenges across global enterprise environments.
• Remote or hybrid flexibility depending on project and client requirements.
• Exposure to advanced tooling, AI-assisted diagnostics, and modern enterprise infrastructure.
• Strong career growth in a senior technical expert track within systems engineering.
• Opportunity to shape diagnostic standards, playbooks, and engineering best practices at scale.
• Collaborative environment focused on technical excellence and continuous learning.
