Semiconductor or embedded engineering environment experience is a plus. * Experience running platform migrations, ideally including email, file storage or source control, with minimal disruption to a technical user base. * Fluent German and professional working English, and the communication skills to be the trusted IT person for a small, senior engineering team while working closely with colleagues eight time zones away. * Comfortable with ambiguity and migration work, and willing to both set standards and reset a printer. ## Description Mythic is building the future of AI computing with breakthrough analog technology that delivers 100x the performance of traditional digital systems at the same power and cost. Our Hannover team, videantis GmbH, brings deep computer vision and video processing expertise to that mission, and we are hiring a System Administrator to be the IT and infrastructure owner on the ground there. You will keep a highly technical engineering site running day to day, covering servers, network, storage, endpoints, corporate applications, licenses and user support, while leading the local side of a substantial integration program that brings Hannover onto Mythic's global identity, collaboration, source control and security standards. This is a broad, hands-on role with real autonomy: you are the site's IT function, backed by a global IT and DevOps team in the US that you will work with daily. You will report to Mythic's Director of IT & DevOps and partner closely with the Managing Director of videantis GmbH.What you'll do * Own day-to-day IT operations for the Hannover site: user support, onboarding and offboarding, laptops and workstations, meeting room and AV, printers, and physical office IT. * Be the local administrator for Mythic's corporate application stack, including Okta and MFA enrollment, Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, Slack, Zoom and Zoom Rooms, Box, and Atlassian (Jira, Confluence and Jira Service Management), and act as the local approver and first line for access requests. * Administer and maintain the local Linux server, storage, network and firewall environment, including patching, monitoring, backup configuration and tested restores. The Hannover estate is Ubuntu-based; Mythic's wider fleet also includes a RHEL-family (Rocky/RHEL) track for EDA compute that you will interact with. * Build and maintain the site's first complete server, workstation, application and license inventory. None exists today, and it is a prerequisite for most of the work below. * Support the engineering environment the Hannover team depends on: Ubuntu and Windows workstations, self-hosted GitLab and CI runners, the v-NN SDK build flow, SVN/CVS and Git repositories, and local simulation and design tool licensing (Cadence, Siemens/Questa, Synopsys, X-Formation license manager). * Lead the Hannover side of the Mythic integration workstreams: Nextcloud to Box and Confluence, STRATO email and hosting to Google Workspace, domain and DNS to Route 53, GitLab to GitHub, and local task and customer support tooling to Jira and Jira Service Management. * Operate and support the site-to-site VPN and network interconnect to Mythic's Austin datacenter, and work with the US DevOps team on network redesign, subnet renumbering and migration to a centrally managed network stack. * Implement Mythic's global security and endpoint standards locally: SSO and MFA, NinjaOne UEM enrollment, disk encryption with key escrow, patch SLAs, elimination of shared accounts, access logging, and the evidence required for foundry and customer security audits. * Handle local IT vendor and license management, hardware procurement and asset tracking, and support GDPR-compliant data handling in coordination with Mythic Legal and outside counsel. * Document the environment thoroughly and act as the local escalation point and bridge between the Hannover team and Mythic's global IT and DevOps organization. ## Related Videos - [Navigating the Corporate Jungle: Life as a Developer in a large Company](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/621-navigating-the-corporate-jungle-life-as-a-developer-in-a-large-company) - [Improving quality with Agentic AI with Rovo Dev and Xray](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/2005-improving-quality-with-agentic-ai-with-rovo-dev-and-xray) - [How a Small Team Shrank a Microsoft Monorepo by 94%](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1236-how-a-small-team-shrank-a-microsoft-monorepo-by-94) - [Empowering Thousands of Developers: Our Journey to an Internal Developer Platform](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1519-empowering-thousands-of-developers-our-journey-to-an-internal-developer-platform) - [Collaboration Quantified: Lessons from Open Source Developer Networks](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1422-collaboration-quantified-lessons-from-open-source-developer-networks) - [Git for Code Reviews](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/429-git-for-code-reviews) ## Related Articles - [How We Built a Worry-Free System That Runs for 10+ Years – And What We’d Do Again](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/751-how-we-built-a-worry-free-system-that-runs-for-10-years-and-what-we-d-do-again) - [The Most Popular IT Jobs on the Market](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/376-the-most-popular-it-jobs-on-the-market) - [Dev Digest 120 - Apple and peers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/455-dev-digest-120-apple-and-peers) - [The Biggest German Tech Companies](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/424-the-biggest-german-tech-companies) - [Should Tech Managers Be Developers First?
