RESPONSIBILITIES:
- Deploy, configure, and dynamically scale (bring up or tear down) infrastructure across bare metal servers and virtual machines based on the fluctuating testing demands of the Java Spring Boot applications.
- Maintain, monitor, and optimize the underlying server infrastructure that hosts the CI/CD tools (including GitLab and Jenkins), ensuring high availability for the DevOps teams managing the pipelines.
- Implement and heavily automate the configuration, STIG compliance enforcement, and routine patching of Red Hat Linux 8/9 systems to ensure maximum security and minimal manual overhead.
- Perform essential system administration, configure networking equipment, and execute reliable "sneakernet" data transfers to keep systems updated within a strictly disconnected and air-gapped network environment.
- Bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Information Technology, or a related quantitative field.
- At least five (5) years of experience; including extensive hands-on administrative experience, specifically with Red Hat Linux 8/9 deployment, automated patching, and STIG application.
- Strong scripting and infrastructure automation capabilities (using tools like Bash, Python, or Ansible) to transition manual tasks into automated provisioning and dynamic scaling workflows.
- Proven hands-on experience deploying, configuring, and administering bare metal server hardware and virtual machines to support high-demand testing environments and microservices architectures.
- Demonstrated ability to maintain and optimize the underlying server hardware and operating systems that support enterprise CI/CD platforms like GitLab and Jenkins.
- Clearance: Fully adjudicated DoD active Secret clearance
- Experience with the deployment, configuration, and daily usage of Red Hat Satellite for centralized patch management and Red Hat Identity Management (IdM) servers for authentication is a strong plus.
- Familiarity with containerization and orchestration technologies, with the ability to help evaluate and potentially introduce Kubernetes in the future to further enhance infrastructure elasticity.
- A solid understanding of system resource management and how dynamic infrastructure scaling impacts the performance and testing of enterprise-level Java Spring Boot applications.
- Prior experience successfully executing administrative duties and secure physical data transfers (sneakernet) in fully disconnected or highly classified environments.
- Relevant industry certifications (such as Red Hat Certified System Administrator (RHCSA) or Red Hat Certified Engineer (RHCE)).
