Linux Build Engineer information

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Linux Build Engineer, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Linux Build Engineer, you need strong expertise in Linux system administration, scripting languages (such as Bash or Python), and build automation concepts, often backed by a degree in computer science or related field. Familiarity with build tools like Jenkins, Git, Docker, and configuration management systems such as Ansible or Puppet is typically required. Problem-solving abilities, attention to detail, and effective teamwork are crucial soft skills for this role. These competencies ensure reliable, efficient build processes and enable smooth collaboration in fast-paced development environments.

What does a Linux Build Engineer do?

A Linux Build Engineer is responsible for designing, implementing, and maintaining build systems for software projects that run on Linux operating systems. They automate build processes, manage dependencies, troubleshoot build failures, and ensure that software compiles and packages correctly. Additionally, they often collaborate with development and operations teams to streamline continuous integration and delivery pipelines, improving deployment efficiency and software quality.

What are some typical challenges faced by Linux Build Engineers in managing build automation pipelines?

Linux Build Engineers often encounter challenges such as maintaining consistency across multiple environments, troubleshooting complex build failures, and integrating new tools into existing CI/CD pipelines. They must ensure that builds remain reproducible and stable as codebases and dependencies evolve. Collaboration with development, QA, and operations teams is essential to quickly address issues and optimize the build process, making strong communication and problem-solving skills critical in this role.

What is the difference between Linux Build Engineer vs Linux System Administrator?

AspectLinux Build EngineerLinux System Administrator
Primary FocusBuilding, maintaining, and optimizing Linux software builds and automationManaging, configuring, and maintaining Linux systems and servers
Skills & CertificationsLinux scripting, build tools (e.g., Jenkins), version control, Linux certifications (e.g., RHCE)Linux system management, networking, security, certifications like RHCE or CompTIA Linux+
Work EnvironmentDevelopment teams, CI/CD pipelines, software companiesIT departments, data centers, enterprise environments
Common TasksAutomating builds, troubleshooting build failures, integrating softwareSystem setup, user management, troubleshooting hardware/software issues

While both roles require Linux expertise and certifications like RHCE, Linux Build Engineers focus on software build processes and automation, whereas Linux System Administrators manage and maintain Linux infrastructure. The roles often collaborate but serve different core functions within organizations.

Job description


Mission Operations Engineer – Ground Systems

Status: Full Time, Exempt

Location: Moriarty, NM

Reports to: Chief of Mission Operations

Who Are We:

Sceye is a high-growth technology company, building the next generation of instant communications, imaging and remote sensing infrastructure through stratospheric platforms. Our lighter-than-air high-altitude platform systems (LTA HAPS) are capable of maintaining position over an operational area in the stratosphere (altitudes of 18 – 21km). They can carry multiple telecommunications, imaging and remote sensing payloads, providing unique functionality, cost, environmental and societal advantages.

Our HAPS can be deployed in a matter of days and at a fraction of the cost of traditional infrastructure solutions. This makes them an ideal solution for providing telecommunications connectivity, emergency solutions in the event of natural or other disasters, environmental and infrastructure monitoring, Earth observation and a range of defense applications.

Our customers & partners include some of the largest global telecommunications companies, infrastructure operators, climate researchers, civil and defense agencies.

At Sceye, we aim high, and we want you to join us at the stratospheric edge of innovation. As part of our mission-driven team, you’ll contribute to building breakthrough technologies that are changing the way we connect and observe the world. We are looking for individuals who bring not only deep expertise but also bold vision and an unwavering commitment to excellence.

About the Position:

Sceye is seeking a full-time Mission Operations Engineer – Ground Systems to join our Mission Operations Team. This role is pivotal in developing, maintaining, and operating mission-critical ground systems—both hardware and software—that support Sceye’s lighter-than-air High Altitude Platform System (HAPS). You’ll collaborate closely with Mission Operations, Software, and Engineering teams to design, build, test, and operate the next generation of Sceye’s ground systems. In addition to technical development, you’ll support pre-flight planning, console operations during missions, and post-flight data analysis.

This position is ideal for an engineer who thrives in a fast-paced environment, enjoys hands-on system work, and wants to directly influence the performance, safety, and reliability of next-generation aerospace systems.

What You’ll Do:

Test Design & Execution

  • Automate test procedures, capture results, and document anomalies
  • Develop intuitive interfaces that help operators identify issues and monitor key telemeters

Scripting & Development

  • Author scripts or test applications to validate functionality and performance
  • Create UI components for test and simulator tools
  • Submit software change requests and support validation during feature development

System Operations & Administration

  • Manage and maintain test environments (hardware and software)
  • Perform system administration on Linux-based platforms
  • Apply networking skills to manage distributed ground systems

Radio Frequency & Software-Defined Radio (Optional but Valuable)

  • Interface with RF hardware and SDRs to validate signal processing and communications

Simulation & Visualization

  • Develop or use simulation and visualization tools to model system behavior
  • Integrate results into system acceptance and validation workflows

Beyond-Line-of-Sight (BLOS) Systems

  • Support and troubleshoot systems operating BLOS, addressing data latency and accuracy challenges

What We’re Looking For:

Required

  • Bachelor’s degree in aerospace, mechanical, electrical, software, computer engineering, or a physical science (emphasis on lab/research experience)
  • 5+ years of professional experience in ground control system (GCS) design and/or testing
  • Experience testing aerospace systems
  • Strong Linux skills and basic system administration knowledge
  • Proficiency in at least one scripting language (Python or Ruby preferred)
  • Ability to write, audit, and maintain test scripts, validation code, and UIs for internal tools
  • Understanding of human-factor design principles for UI/UX
  • Experience with data analysis and aggregation of large datasets
  • Ability to interpret requirements and demonstrate verification/validation methods

Preferred / Nice to Have

  • Hands-on experience with software-defined radios (SDR) or RF hardware
  • Familiarity with simulation modeling and visualization tools
  • Experience with Beyond-Line-of-Sight (BLOS) communications and related interfaces

Soft Skills

  • Strong troubleshooting and analytical mindset
  • Clear, effective communication across cross-functional and multi-functional teams
  • Detail-oriented with exceptional documentation habits
  • Adaptable, proactive, and eager to learn new technologies
  • Collaborative and comfortable working across disciplines
  • Curious and driven to innovate

What We Offer:


At Sceye, we’re building more than high-altitude platforms—we’re building a workplace where people (and their pups) thrive. Here’s what you’ll enjoy:


  • Chef-Prepared Lunches – Fresh, onsite meals to keep you fueled and focused.
  • Snacks & Refreshments – Enjoy a variety of snacks and drinks available throughout the day.
