Infrastructure Management: Administer essential network services including Active Directory (AD), Group Policy Objects (GPOs), Domain Name System (DNS), and Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP).
  • Virtualization Support: Maintain and optimize VMware ESXi environments, vCenter Server, and associated virtual infrastructure to ensure maximum uptime. Backup & Recovery: Implement, test, and maintain robust data backup, disaster recovery, and system replication plans.

  • Cybersecurity Compliance & Hardening (35%)
  • Vulnerability Remediation: Regularly review, assess, and patch vulnerabilities identified by automated scanning tools such as ACAS (Assured Compliance Assessment Solution) and Nessus. System Hardening: Apply Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) Security Technical Implementation Guides (STIGs) to operating systems, browsers, and application enclaves to ensure compliance with Risk Management Framework (RMF) and NIST SP 800-53 standards.
  • Audit and Compliance: Collaborate closely with Cybersecurity Professionals to compile and maintain RMF-compliant documentation, system security plans, and configuration management logs. Certificate Management: Implement and troubleshoot Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) and Single Sign-On (SSO) configurations.
  • Scripting, Automation & Network Support (10%)
  • Automation: Develop and refine administrative scripts using PowerShell, Bash, or Ansible to automate recurring tasks, patching schedules, and security configuration baselines. Network Troubleshooting: Provide configuration and basic troubleshooting support for enterprise switches (e.g., Cisco), firewalls, and secure local area network (LAN) connections.
  • User Support & Professional Collaboration (10%)
  • Ticketing System: Familiarization and experience with support ticketing system such as ServiceNow to actively management customer requests and system projects. Tier II/III Support: Deliver advanced technical troubleshooting, end-user training, and incident resolution for escalated helpdesk requests. Documentation: Draft and maintain system administrator manuals, standard operating procedures (SOPs), and system architecture diagrams using tools like Microsoft Visio.

Education and Background
  • Required Education & Experience Education: Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, Cybersecurity, or a related STEM field. Appropriate experience can be accepted in lieu of Degree.
  • Experience: A minimum of five (5) years of relevant systems administration experience.
