Job description

We are seeking an experienced Systems Administrator to manage, maintain, and optimize our IT infrastructure.

Unlike many modern environments shifting entirely to third-party cloud platforms, CFM operates a fully on-premise network. We like having direct control, visibility, and high performance across our local systems and multi-location setup.

If you thrive on owning an environment end-to-end, writing automation scripts to eliminate repetitive tasks, and keeping a reliable physical network running smoothly, this is the role for you. Fortunately we have a well-maintained environment with established processes and room to innovate., Network & Infrastructure Administration

  • Maintain, monitor, and troubleshoot our multi-site, on-premise network infrastructure (switches, routers, firewalls, and VPNs).
  • Ensure maximum network uptime, performance, and security across all corporate and branch locations.
  • Manage local storage systems, backup routines, disaster recovery protocols, and hardware lifecycles.

Server & Systems Management

  • Oversee Windows Server environments, Active Directory, Group Policy, DNS, and DHCP.
  • Perform routine maintenance, patching, system upgrades, and capacity planning.
  • Serve as the senior technical escalation point for complex system or network issues.

Automation & Scripting

  • Utilize PowerShell to automate system administration tasks, user onboarding/offboarding workflows, and routine maintenance routines.
  • Build, maintain, and document custom scripts to keep systems running efficiently with minimal manual intervention.

Requirements

  • Hands-on On-Premise Experience: Proven experience administering and troubleshooting traditional, physical/virtualized on-premise networks and server rooms.
  • Strong Networking Core: Solid grasp of TCP/IP, VLANs, routing protocols, firewall rules, and site-to-site connectivity.
  • PowerShell Proficiency: Ability to write clean, effective PowerShell scripts for task automation and systems management.
  • Server Expertise: Deep understanding of Windows Server environments, Active Directory administration, and virtualization.
  • Process-Driven Mindset: Excellent documentation habits and a structured approach to problem-solving, change management, and system upkeep.
  • Strong Communication: Ability to collaborate effectively with internal teams, leadership, and external vendor partners.
