## Description

Network / Systems Engineer This role is designed for a versatile engineer with a dual mastery of Linux administration and multi-vendor networking . You will ensure the stability and performance of a large-scale ecosystem, working across servers, virtualized systems, and high-end networking gear to keep critical infrastructure running at peak efficiency. We aren't looking for a siloed specialist; we need an infrastructure "all-rounder" who is just as comfortable troubleshooting a Linux kernel as they are configuring a Juniper switch. This position offers a unique learning experience to manage a truly diverse tech stack including Juniper, Arista, and Cisco hardware. If you thrive in high-scale environments where you can take full ownership of stability-from hands-on server maintenance to complex routing operations-this is the perfect opportunity to sharpen your skills at the center of a massive distributed network., * Automation & Scripting: Proficiency in Python, Bash, or similar languages to streamline infrastructure tasks.

 * Observability: Exposure to telemetry and advanced monitoring systems for proactive issue detection.
 * Virtualization: Experience supporting and resolving connectivity issues within virtualized infrastructure.

What You Will Be Doing

You will be the primary line of defense for a distributed infrastructure, responsible for the end-to-end health of both the OS and the network fabric. This includes configuring high-performance networking components, managing the lifecycle of server hardware, and participating in an on-call rotation for incident response. You will also play a key role in documenting procedures and identifying performance bottlenecks across the virtualized environment.
Tech Breakdown

 * 50% Linux Systems & Server Hardware
