Description

We are looking for a Senior Linux & Network Platform Engineer who can take full ownership of our infrastructure stack, from bare-metal Linux servers and networking. This is a senior hands-on role with a strong architectural and leadership component. You will drive our platform strategy, define best practices, ensure reliability at scale, and mentor developers on platform aspects.

Key Responsibilities

Architect, build and maintain Linux-based server environments with a strong focus on reliability, security and performance.

Administer and maintain enterprise Linux environments (Debian, Ubuntu, Talos).

Manage and maintain virtualization environments, including platforms such as Proxmox and KVM.

Configure and maintain Linux networking components, including VLANs, routing configurations, bonding and firewall rules.

Implement and maintain automation scripts and configuration management using tools such as Ansible and Terraform. Design and operate network infrastructure (switches, routers, firewalls, VPN, routing, VLANs, HA topologies).

Define and enforce infrastructure standards, system hardening, automation and access policies.

Lead troubleshooting and incident response across compute, network and storage layers.

Implement automation for provisioning, patching and configuration management.

Establish high-availability, backup and DR strategies across environments.

Drive documentation quality, operational runbooks and infrastructure governance.

Optional: IS-IS

Optional: experience with configuration of Mikrotik and Fortigate firewalls

We focus on meaningful ownership and measurable outcomes. You will work on a platform that empowers developers, improves release reliability, and enables continuous automation across the SDLC. We will support a culture where reliability engineering, observability, and SLO-driven thinking are part of everyday execution.

You will have the opportunity to shape standards for CI/CD, containerization, Kubernetes operations, and immutable environments while contributing directly to tools and processes that increase developer productivity.
