Are you ready to accelerate your career in a technically challenging and meaningful environment?
We’re looking for a Linux Systems Engineer to join a tight-knit internal IT team supporting a mission-critical infrastructure that underpins life-saving technology used across the globe. You’ll play a key role in deploying, upgrading, and maintaining software and infrastructure systems across multiple environments.
This is a hands-on, high-expectation role ideal for someone who wants to be technically stretched, sharpen their skills, and work with a leader committed to making you one of the best professionals in the industry. If you're comfortable in a Linux terminal, confident with scripting, and hungry to learn in a complex real-world environment, this could be your proving ground.
What You’ll Be Doing
* Supporting and improving a globally distributed infrastructure estate with varied Linux systems (Debian/Ubuntu)
* Managing live database systems (MySQL/MongoDB), backups, and performance tuning
* Troubleshooting day-to-day technical issues — expect some days to be quiet and others to be all-hands-on-deck
* Working alongside sysadmins and software engineers on infrastructure enhancements and automation
What You’ll Need
* Strong Linux command line and scripting experience (Bash, etc.) – 80% of your time
* Working knowledge of Windows environments – 20%
* Solid understanding of networking concepts (TCP/IP, DNS, VPNs)
* Experience with virtualization (VMWare/Hyper-V)
* Exposure to cloud technologies (AWS essential; Azure/GCP a bonus)
Nice to Have
* Experience with customer-facing deployments or upgrades
* Awareness of compliance, security policies, and access controls
* Any exposure to Site24x7, LDAP, WSUS, or Active Directory
* Ability to work toward (or already hold) UK security clearance
Why This Role Stands Out
* Impactful Work – The systems you’ll support help save lives and protect communities
* Career Growth – Work directly with a seasoned, high-performing lead who’s helped engineers launch international careers
* Real Challenge – You’ll gain experience across infrastructure, cloud, security, and systems in a genuinely complex environment
