## About the Role

Software Engineering, Linux Operating System, Identify Issues, Cloud Computing, Software Engineering, Linux Operating System, Linux Administration, DevOps, Red Hat Linux Operating System, Ubuntu, We are looking for a highly experienced Linux Infrastructure Engineer with deep expertise in traditional Linux administration, bare metal infrastructure, and enterprise storage. This role is not focused on DevOps or cloud-native engineering. We already have a strong DevOps team and are looking for someone with extensive hands-on experience designing, building, administering, and troubleshooting large-scale Linux infrastructure., * Expert-level Linux administration (Ubuntu required; Red Hat and SUSE preferred)

 * Deep expertise in bare metal server deployment, architecture, and administration
 * Strong understanding of server hardware, including BIOS, RAID, firmware, iLO/iDRAC/IPMI, NICs, HBA cards, and hardware troubleshooting
 * Experience designing and administering enterprise Linux infrastructure
 * Advanced Linux storage administration:
 + LVM
 + XFS, EXT4
 + NFS
 + iSCSI
 + Fibre Channel SAN
 + Multipath I/O
 * Strong hands-on experience with Ceph, including:
 + Cluster architecture
 + MON, OSD, MDS
 + RBD, CephFS, RGW
 + Capacity planning
 + Performance tuning
 + Failure recovery
 * Strong networking knowledge (bonding, VLANs, routing, MTU, DNS, DHCP)
 * Experience with high availability, clustering, and disaster recovery
 * Strong troubleshooting skills across Linux OS, hardware, networking, and storage
 * Bash and Python scripting for automation

Nice to Have

 * Kubernetes infrastructure (especially storage integration)
 * VMware or KVM
 * Ansible
 * AWS/Azure exposure

We are not looking for

 * Candidates whose experience is primarily CI/CD pipeline engineering
 * Engineers focused mainly on Terraform, GitOps, or container platforms
 * Cloud-only administrators with limited bare metal or infrastructure experience

Ideal candidate: Someone who has spent years running enterprise Linux environments, building servers from the hardware up, architecting storage platforms, and solving complex OS, hardware, and storage issues. DevOps experience is a plus, but traditional Linux infrastructure expertise is the primary requirement.
