Summary

Job Title: Linux System Admin with Python /SRE

Location: REMOTE - PST time zone preferred

Experience: 10+ Years

Top Skills Required :

  1. Linux Skills
  2. Automation
  3. AWS

Overview:

We are looking for a Senior SRE (Linux) to build and operate the systems that run on every host across our infrastructure.

Our team owns OS configuration, automation, AMIs, and container base images across a large-scale hybrid environment (AWS + on-prem). If you enjoy working across layers from automation to low-level debugging this role sits right at that boundary.

What You ll Do

  • Build automation for Linux host lifecycle (config, patching, images)
  • Own system services, base images, and infrastructure components
  • Debug production issues across OS, performance, and service layers
  • Work across codebases (C, Go, Python, Ruby) to diagnose and fix issues
  • Lead projects from ambiguous problems to production
  • Improve reliability through automation and system design
  • Partner on security and FedRAMP requirements
  • Participate in a sustainable on-call rotation (~16 days/year)

What Makes This Role Interesting

  • Own the Linux layer across the entire platform
  • Work across the stack: kernel containers automation
  • Solve real tradeoffs: reliability, security, and developer experience
  • High ownership with direct impact on how engineers run services

What We re Looking For

  • 7+ years working with Linux in production
  • Strong automation skills (Python and/or Ruby, Ansible preferred)
  • Experience debugging complex systems issues
  • Comfortable working across cloud + on-prem environments
  • U.S. Person required (FedRAMP; U.S.-based work)

Nice to Have

  • Docker / Kubernetes
  • AMIs or container image building
  • Go, C, or other systems-level languages
  • Experience with compliance environments (FedRAMP, NIST, etc.)

Team Culture

  • We value engineers who take ownership, dive deep, and build systems that make the right thing easy. Strong fundamentals matter more than specific tools.
