Job description

Davdison is seeking an Ansible/Linux Automation Engineer in Huntsville, Alabama
(Contingent Upon Award)
Job Responsibilities:
  • Design and implement reusable, idempotent Ansible playbooks and roles for provisioning, configuration, and ongoing maintenance of Linux servers.
  • Ensure automation handles system reboots gracefully (boot-time configuration, service recovery, persistent state).
  • Perform day-to-day Linux admin duties (patching, user and package management, performance tuning) while continuously automating repetitive tasks.
  • Write and maintain Bash/Posix scripts to complement Ansible workflows and enable rapid diagnostics.
  • Conduct root-cause analysis and incident response, delivering long-term fixes for both automated and manual processes.
  • Manage version control (code review, branching strategies) for automation assets using Git.
  • Produce clear documentation, architecture diagrams, and knowledge-base articles for automated solutions.
  • Collaborate with development, cyber, and operations teams to embed automation into CI/CD pipelines and compliance frameworks.

Job Requirements:
  • Ansible: 1-3 years building automation for sysadmin tasks, with solutions that survive system reboots.
  • Linux Administration: 2-5 years hands-on experience managing RHEL, CentOS, Ubuntu (or comparable) in production.
  • Shell Scripting: Proficient in Bash/Posix scripting for automation and debugging.
  • Complex Troubleshooting: Proven ability to resolve intricate infrastructure issues (networking, storage, service interdependencies).
  • Git: Comfortable with branching, merging, pull-request workflows, and repository maintenance.

Preferred Qualifications:
  • Windows Server administration, PowerShell scripting, and integration of Windows nodes into Ansible automation.
  • Hardware programming experience such as firmware flashing, BIOS configuration, or embedded system programming to support infrastructure provisioning.

Clearance Requirements:
  • Must carry an Active DoD Secret Security Clearance
