We are looking for an experienced Infrastructure Engineer to join our Infrastructure Engineering team.

In this role, you will be responsible for the design, development, security, automation and operation of Linux platforms across office and production environments. You will help ensure that Linux environments remain secure, stable, compliant, highly available and aligned with business and operational requirements.

This is an advanced level position suited to an engineer who can work largely autonomously, solve complex technical problems and provide guidance to less experienced team members.

  • Design, develop and maintain Linux client platforms across office and production environments.
  • Define, implement and continuously improve Linux functionality based on business and operational requirements.
  • Develop and maintain Linux base images, software packages and configuration standards.
  • Ensure Linux platforms comply with security, hardening and regulatory requirements.
  • Perform vulnerability assessments and implement appropriate remediation measures.
  • Install, configure, administer and support Linux environments across physical, virtual and cloud infrastructure.
  • Support Linux environments running in cloud platforms such as AWS.
  • Monitor system performance and troubleshoot complex infrastructure issues.
  • Ensure high availability, reliability and operational stability across critical environments.
  • Automate deployment, configuration and operational processes to improve efficiency and reliability.
  • Manage system updates, patches and Linux platform lifecycle activities.
  • Support Incident, Problem and Change Management processes for dedicated IT services.
  • Maintain accurate technical documentation, knowledge articles, CMDB records and operational procedures.
  • Ensure adherence to operational standards, security policies and compliance requirements.
  • Track and manage Jira user stories and operational tasks within an Agile working environment.
  • Collaborate closely with infrastructure, cloud, security and application teams.
  • Facilitate operational meetings and contribute to continuous service improvement initiatives.
  • Participate in on call support and weekend maintenance activities when required.

Benefits

  • Exposure to a cutting edge global IT environment.
  • Opportunity to work with modern infrastructure, cloud and automation technologies.
  • Flexible working based on an annual working hour model.
  • Strong focus on work life balance.
  • Remote and on site working flexibility.
  • An energetic, collaborative and fast paced working environment.
  • Modern working facilities.
  • The opportunity to collaborate with global technology teams.
  • An Agile working environment.
  • Opportunities to work on critical infrastructure platforms and large scale technology solutions.
