We are working with a major government client looking for an experienced Linux Engineer to join their team. Due to the nature of the role and the client, candidates with active SC clearance and eligible for DV Clearance would be preferred.
As Senior Linux Engineer, you'll provide advanced technical expertise across enterprise Linux infrastructure to maintain performance, security and availability. The role exists to support ongoing project delivery and BAU operations, while driving automation and platform improvements in line with internal and regulatory standards. You'll act as a senior technical point within the engineering function, working closely with other teams and vendors to keep environments up to date and well governed.
I am therefore keen to speak with candidates who have
- Strong experience in a senior Linux engineering role within a complex infrastructure environment, ideally within government / public sector environments.
- Proven ability to act as a senior technical Linux resource, owning decisions and outcomes.
- Experience with virtualised networking and platforms such as VMware or Hyper-V.
- Advanced scripting skills with Bash and Python.
- Good understanding of core services and protocols (HTTPS, SSH, DNS, NTP, SSL) and troubleshooting Linux issues to 4th line level.
- Hands-on experience with Ansible automation and infrastructure monitoring.
- Working knowledge of Confluence, Jira and JSM.
- Understanding of database technologies such as PostgreSQL, MariaDB, MongoDB and SQL, plus experience managing Linux certificates, squid and Linux tooling upgrades.
- Broad understanding of on-prem and cloud-based infrastructure, with occasional out-of-hours work and site travel as required.
- Desirable: relevant IT / engineering qualification or equivalent experience.
- Desirable: experience with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure or GCP) and CEPH or other Linux storage environments.
