What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in the Cloudstack position, and why are they important?

To thrive in a CloudStack Administrator role, you need a strong understanding of cloud infrastructure, virtualization, networking concepts, and experience with Apache CloudStack deployments. Hands-on proficiency with hypervisors (like KVM, Xen, or VMware), scripting (such as Bash or Python), and relevant certifications (e.g., CloudStack Certification, Linux administration) is highly valued. Analytical problem-solving, clear communication, and the ability to manage multiple tasks in a dynamic environment are essential soft skills. These qualifications enable efficient management of cloud resources, troubleshooting, and seamless collaboration with IT and development teams.

What are some of the key challenges faced by a CloudStack Administrator, and how are they typically addressed?

CloudStack Administrators often manage complex cloud environments, which can present challenges such as ensuring proper network configurations, troubleshooting deployment issues, and maintaining system scalability and uptime. These challenges are typically managed through continuous monitoring, implementing best practices for security and automation, and staying updated with the latest CloudStack releases and patches. Collaboration with cross-functional teams is crucial for resolving infrastructure-related issues and optimizing system performance. Proactive learning and problem-solving are essential for success in this dynamic role.

Job description

Our New Teammate

We are seeking a Senior Linux Engineer who wants deep ownership of production Linux systems, modern virtualization infrastructure, and the automation that keeps mission-critical environments reliable, secure, and scalable. This role is hands-on and high-impact: you will administer and improve Linux platforms running on CloudStack and KVM, build and refine operational tooling, strengthen observability and alerting, and help shape the engineering standards that govern our environments.

This position is ideal for an engineer who wants to work on systems that matter—someone who is motivated by real operational responsibility, enjoys solving hard infrastructure problems, and takes pride in building stable, supportable platforms. You will work across platform operations, monitoring, automation, and customer-facing delivery, contributing both day-to-day technical execution and longer-term improvements in reliability, consistency, and operational maturity.

While this is not a people-management role, it does require technical leadership. The Senior Linux Engineer will help define best practices, influence engineering standards, mentor others through strong documentation and collaboration, and serve as a trusted subject matter expert for Linux systems, telemetry, performance, and infrastructure reliability across the organization.

You can expect to spend your time accomplishing the following:

  • 50% of the time on Objective 1: Linux Platform Ownership
  • 25% of the time on Objective 2: Standards, Instrumentation, and Reliability Practices
  • 25% of the time on Objective 3: Cross-Functional Technical Leadership

Job Responsibilities – What to Expect

  • Manage a fleet of Linux KVM hypervisors and VMs using Ansible
  • Evaluate, propose, and build tooling to support and optimize operations in a CloudStack / KVM virtualization platform.
  • Administer and maintain a CloudStack environment running KVM hypervisors.
  • Participate in estimation and execution of customer-facing Linux systems projects.
  • Define, implement, and respond to internal Linux operational alerting.
  • Define and implement operational reports and dashboards for capacity management and other operational needs.
  • Ensure high-quality, consistent telemetry across all environments.
  • Lead the technical diagnoses of Linux system Problems as part of the ITIL problem management process.
  • Define and publish organizational standards for Linux server infrastructure.
  • Implement standards as infrastructure-as-code using configuration management tools, Ansible, Terraform
  • Establish and maintain security hardening standards across all Linux environments
  • Develop configuration management pipelines to manage drift across Linux environments using GitHub and Ansible
  • Stay current with emerging technologies and recommend improvements to existing infrastructure
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to integrate Linux systems with development pipelines
  • Mentor junior engineers and create technical documentation for knowledge transfer
  • Provide expert guidance on system behavior, failure modes, performance patterns, and telemetry-driven insights

Your Knowledge & Expertise

  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Networking, Telecommunications, or related technical field
  • Red Hat Certified Engineer (RHCE) or equivalent Linux certifications
  • CompTIA Linux+ or LPIC-2 certification
  • VMware Certified Professional (VCP) or equivalent virtualization certification
  • 5+ years of advanced Linux system administration experience in enterprise environments
  • Proficiency with KVM virtualization technologies and management
  • Hands-on experience with administration and cloud orchestration in CloudStack or a similar product (OpenStack, etc.)
  • Strong background in Network Management Systems (NMS) integration and configuration
  • Advanced scripting skills in Bash, Python, or go
  • Experience with configuration management tools (Ansible, Terraform, or Chef)
  • Deep understanding of TCP/IP networking, routing, and firewall configuration
  • Linux security hardening and compliance framework implementation experience
  • Customer-facing project delivery experience with strong communication skills
  • Proven hands-on experience operating Linux systems (RHEL, Ubuntu, CentOS) at scale, including performance tuning, benchmarking, hardening, and troubleshooting
  • Demonstrated experience with observability tooling such as Splunk, ElasticSearch, Graphite, Zabbix, log pipelines, and metrics systems
  • Proficiency with Kubernetes, Docker, CI/CD, and infrastructure automation frameworks such as Ansible, Chef, or Salt
  • Experience designing or supporting disaster recovery, high-availability, and SLA-driven systems for mission-critical services
  • Background in security operations or tooling such as MS Defender, Nessus, Carbon Black, CrowdStrike, IAM, or FIM solutions


Benefits Included:

  • Medical Insurance
  • Vision Insurance
  • Dental Insurance
  • FSA Plan
  • Paid Time Off
  • 401K Retirement Savings Plan
  • Training & Tuition Assistance
  • Disability & Life Insurance
