Responsibilities

  • Hybrid Platform Standardization: Audit, harden, and standardize Unix (Solaris/AIX) and Linux (RHEL/Ubuntu) environments across both GCP Compute Engine and physical bare-metal servers.

  • Storage Engineering (Specialization): Architect and manage enterprise-grade SAN/NAS environments alongside GCP Cloud Storage/Persistent Disk. Optimize for low latency and high IOPS while ensuring all data-at-rest complies with our Annual Encryption Strategy.

  • Infrastructure Stewardship (DC Support): Serve as the engineering lead for our Eastern U.S. data centers; ensure hardware health, power redundancy, and physical security standards are enforced through code and automated checks.

  • Automation of Toil: Design and maintain robust automation pipelines (Ansible, Terraform, Python) to ensure configuration parity and eliminate drift between cloud and on-premises environments.

  • Vulnerability Management: Transition the fleet from a "vulnerable" state to a "reliable" one by establishing a sustainable, automated monthly patching cadence.

  • Unified Observability: Implement and scale a "single pane of glass" monitoring stack (Prometheus, Grafana, Loki) to provide real-time health metrics for the entire hybrid estate.

  • Incident Response & Post-Mortems: Participate in a sustainable on-call rotation. Lead Blameless Post Mortems for incidents involving cross-platform dependencies to ensure we "fix the system, not the person."
