This is a full-time onsite role in Taylor, TX.

  • Implement proactive monitoring (Prometheus, Grafana, Nagios, etc.) and capacity-planning processes.
  • Continuously optimize performance, security hardening, and resource utilization.
  • Deploy and maintain HA clusters (Pacemaker/Corosync, Red Hat Cluster, etc.) and multi-site disaster-recovery procedures.
  • Design, test, and maintain DR playbooks; conduct quarterly recovery drills.
  • Automate fail-over/fail-back workflows for clustered services and storage systems.
  • Provide technical guidance and on-the-job training to Tier-1 staff and junior engineers.
  • Champion documentation standards and maintain an internal knowledge base.

Requirements
Qualifications:
  • 7+ years of hands-on experience administering Linux systems in enterprise or manufacturing environments.
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field preferred; equivalent experience and certifications accepted.
  • Deep expertise with Red Hat, Oracle Linux, CentOS, Rocky Linux, and related distributions.
  • Advanced knowledge of enterprise Linux distributions; hands-on experience with bare-metal servers (Dell PowerEdge, Oracle x86) and Oracle Exadata appliances.
  • Proven experience deploying and operating Red Hat clustering (Pacemaker/Corosync) or comparable UNIX/Linux clustering solutions.
  • Expert-level Bash/Python/Perl scripting; production use of configuration-management tools (Ansible, Puppet, Chef) and infrastructure-as-code (Terraform).
  • Proficiency with KVM/Xen/VMware and container runtimes (Docker, Podman) plus orchestration (Kubernetes/OpenShift).
  • Experience supporting mission-critical, high-availability environments with 24/7 operational responsibilities.
  • Strong background in the Linux storage stack (LVM, MD RAID, XFS/ext4/Btrfs) and integration with SAN/NAS solutions.
  • Experience working in fast-paced production or other relevant environment.
  • Ability to document processes with precision and lead efficient meetings that results in clear ownership and next steps.
  • Proactive communication skills with the ability to articulate ideas clearly and persuasively, both in writing and speech. Proven track record of tailoring communication styles to diverse technical and non-technical audiences.
  • Must be eligible to work in the US for any employer without restrictions.
  • Must be willing and able to work full-time onsite in Taylor, TX.

Preferred (Nice-to-Have) Qualifications:
  • Prior work as a UNIX Engineer (Solaris/AIX/BSD).
