Location – Hybrid – Maidstone Office/Home 2-3 days per week
Salary – Circa £55,000 depending on experience
Tired of firefighting servers? Ready to actually build and improve systems?
Join my client as a Linux Systems Administrator and shape the future of their infrastructure.
If you relish troubleshooting Nginx/Postgres Linux issues and want to work for one of the most supportive and funniest Managers I’ve ever met, this is for you.
You're someone who knows Oracle Linux inside and out. You’ve spent years keeping systems running — now you want more. You want to lead improvements, build smarter infrastructure, and work in an environment where your decisions matter.
Could you see yourself working for a tight-knit digital marketing agency with a modern mindset and a collaborative team. They’re not a giant enterprise with red tape — they’re fast, agile, and open to ideas.
They’re looking for someone like you to:
* Take ownership of their Linux hosting infrastructure (VMware, hybrid cloud)
* Bring best-practice patching and security into the real world
* Work with developers to automate, improve CI/CD, and elevate system resilience
* Be the person who doesn’t just maintain, but makes things better
You’ll be at the intersection of DevOps, Security, and Infrastructure — and you’ll have the freedom and support to modernize it all.
What you'll get:
* Hybrid working: 2–3 days WFH each week
* Salary depending on experience (we’ll match your skillset)
* 21 days holiday + bank holidays
* A say in the direction of our systems and tools
* Supportive team. No egos. Just sharp people solving real problems.
You’ll thrive here if you:
* Have 5+ years in Linux systems (Oracle Linux preferred)
* Know your way around VMware, Ansible, SELinux, Postgres/MySQL, and tools like Prometheus or Grafana
* Love scripting, automating, and optimizing
* Are proactive, curious, and collaborative
