Job Title Location Job Description
Linux Systems Administrator / SRE Connecticut, Westport

Role: Linux Systems Administrator (SysAdmin)

Location : Westport, Connecticut

 

Job Description – DCAnnex

 

Job Description:

 

Seeking a sysadmin/SRE who will serve as second level support. Candidates should have in-depth, hands-on experience troubleshooting

configuration management systems like Ansible, AWS using Linux OS and native AWS tools, and Git source code management. Additionally,

they should be familiar with scripting in bash and python – not just running manual commands off a KB – and able to run, maintain, and write

scripts related to cloud development and administration. Experience with Linux Systems Administration, other cloud providers and virtualization

technologies a plus.

 

Responsibilities:

 

The position is for an operational (run) group. The sysadmin/SRE will respond to incidents and as well as handle support requests for a

variety of technologies related to our cloud services.

The sysadmin/SRE will be responsible for resolving tickets, identifying trends, finding the technical cause of problems, as well as

recommending process/ system changes to eliminate incoming workload, optimizing team process, documenting procedures, and

escalating where appropriate.

sysadmin/SRE will also have project responsibilities (i.e. executing some of the improvements identified by them or others on the team)

and will own small projects within their respective area.

The position is for a primary day shift (8-10 hours per day). While there may be on-call responsibilities, this should be infrequent and brief

during evenings and weekends. More extended off-shift time may be needed but these would be planned in advance, and generally

associated with project work where maintenance windows need to be observed.

This is not a low level position. The person will need an understanding of their respective area, but this is also a hands-on operations

position. Engineers that only want to do projects and/or design and architect solutions will not be happy with this role.

 

Qualifications:

 

Break/Fix, provisioning, decom, and patching of cloud servers and their associated management systems

Documentation

Analyzing, troubleshooting and resolving system OS, software, and performance issues

At least 2+ years of experience in relevant technologies

Hands on knowledge of troubleshooting in a Linux operating system environment

Must be able to work well in an ambiguous and changing environment

 

Core Skills/Technologies:

 

AWS

Moderate Linux and Windows

Ansible, Chef, or similar configuration management systems

Source code management (SVN, Git)

Bash, Python, similar scripting lanuages

 

Additional Skills/ Technologies:

 

Other cloud services

Server patching with yum and Red Hat Satellite

Centrify, SSSD
