What we’re looking for:

• 3+ years of hands-on experience in infrastructure administration, DevOps, or a similar technical role. • Strong practical experience with Windows and/or Linux server administration. • Experience with production infrastructure operations, including monitoring, troubleshooting, patching, backup, and recovery. • Good understanding of networking fundamentals, DNS, SSL/TLS, firewalls, and related infrastructure technologies. • Experience with infrastructure automation and configuration management; Ansible experience is preferred. • Practical experience with CI/CD tools and processes; Jenkins experience is preferred. • Good knowledge of Git and TFS; experience with GitLab and TFS is preferred. • Experience with at least one public cloud platform; AWS experience is preferred. • Experience supporting and administering production database systems (installation, configuration, backup, recovery, monitoring, and troubleshooting). Experience with Firebird is a strong advantage; experience with other relational databases (e.g. Microsoft SQL Server, PostgreSQL, MySQL, Oracle) is also acceptable. • Scripting skills in Python, Bash, and/or PowerShell. • Ability to troubleshoot infrastructure, deployment, and application-related issues. • Ability to work with existing and legacy systems and improve them incrementally without introducing unnecessary operational risk. • Good written and spoken English.

Professional Skills:

• Strong troubleshooting and problem-solving skills. • Practical, hands-on approach to infrastructure operations. • Comfortable combining day-to-day infrastructure work with DevOps engineering tasks. • Willingness to support existing systems rather than focusing exclusively on new technologies. • Ability to understand an existing system before proposing significant changes. • Ability to identify repetitive manual work and automate it where appropriate. • Pragmatic approach to technology selection and infrastructure improvements. • Ability to introduce improvements gradually, with appropriate assessment of operational risks. • Ability to collaborate with system administrators, developers, QA engineers, and software architects.
