About the role

A&M Technologies Inc. is seeking a Senior Network/Systems Tools Engineer to support the Intelligence Sector. The ideal candidate will have extensive experience in designing, implementing, and maintaining the OpenText Network Operations Management (NOM) system architecture, with a focus on the Operations Bridge for the Transformation and Integration Cloud (OPTIC) Data Lake.

Responsibilities

  • System Architecture: Design, implement, and maintain the OpenText Network Operations Management (NOM) system architecture, with a specific focus on the Operations Bridge for the Transformation and Integration Cloud (OPTIC) Data Lake, ensuring a scalable, resilient, and secure platform for enterprise network management, performance monitoring, and compliance reporting.

  • Troubleshooting & Support: Troubleshoot and resolve complex technical issues related to installation, configuration, performance, and integrations, working with vendor support when necessary.

  • Documentation & Training: Create and maintain comprehensive technical documentation according to standards.

  • Automation: Automate routine operational processes using scripting (e.g., Python, Ansible, PowerShell) to increase efficiency and reduce manual workload.

Requirements

  • Must be compliant with DoD 8140 Information Assurance Technical (IAT) Level 2.

  • Technical Knowledge: Deep expertise in container orchestration technologies like Kubernetes in Linux environments.

  • Operating Systems: Proficiency in Linux (RHEL) with experience administering tools in virtualized or containerized environments.

  • Problem Solving and Communication: Strong analytical and problem-solving abilities, possess solid communication skills, and the capacity to work both independently and collaboratively.

Desired

  • Networking Fundamentals: Knowledge of network protocols and technologies (TCP/IP, VPN, VLAN, DNS, DHCP) and experience with network monitoring tools.

  • Automation: Familiarity with scripting languages for automation, such as Perl, Ruby, or Python.
