Key Responsibilities

  • Proactively assess system performance and security, identifying areas for improvement and implementing solutions
  • Administer and maintain both Windows and Linux environments, ensuring stability and compliance
  • Enforce adherence to internal policies and security best practices across user bases and systems
  • Develop and manage Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) projects that integrate into broader automation ecosystems
  • Collaborate with team members on system design discussions, upgrades, and long-term planning
  • Document configurations, changes, and procedures as systems evolve over time
  • Share operational and development responsibilities with peers to ensure resilience and knowledge transfer

What You Bring

  • Proven experience supporting production environments and enabling technical teams
  • Strong scripting ability using Python and Bash for automation and troubleshooting
  • Hands-on experience with Unix-based systems via command-line interface
  • Working knowledge of cloud platforms—specifically AWS, Azure, or GCP—with demonstrated use of services such as EC2, S3, CloudTrail, and IAM
  • Experience writing and interpreting AWS IAM policies
  • Familiarity with Git for version control and collaborative development
  • Understanding of networking fundamentals, authentication mechanisms, and privilege management
  • Knowledge of security frameworks, including system hardening, role-based access controls, and secure handling of secrets and encrypted data
  • Experience integrating identity providers using standards like SAML or OIDC

Nice-to-Have Skills

  • Understanding of Linux and macOS filesystems, daemons, and shell environments
  • Experience deploying command-and-control (C2) infrastructure and redirectors
  • Active participation in security communities, such as conference speaking or open-source contributions
  • Exposure to Ansible, Docker, Jenkins, LogScale, or Terraform

Work Environment

This is a remote position with primary support responsibilities for EMEA and META regions. Occasional in-person presence at the Reading, UK office is expected (less than 10% of the time).
