Linux Operations Engineer

Role overview Keep real-time systems running during professional basketball events, supporting technology that collects and processes performance data from embedded sensors. You’ll conduct remote checks, monitor systems during games, resolve technical incidents, and guide venue staff through equipment procedures while coordinating with an engineering team in Europe.

Responsibilities - Run pre-event checks of remote connectivity, system telemetry, and time synchronization, starting about three hours before coverage. - Monitor live systems throughout events and remain available for roughly one hour afterward. - Diagnose and address Linux, networking, wireless, hardware-connectivity, and data-pipeline issues in real time. - Walk on-site venue staff through antenna placement, cable connections, and equipment setup remotely. - Record incidents, system performance, and technical issues for the engineering team. - Maintain and troubleshoot systems between events as needed.

Requirements - The role calls for practical Linux operations and troubleshooting across networking, hardware connections, wireless systems, and data pipelines. - Ability to respond calmly to incidents and guide venue staff clearly through technical procedures. - Availability for a pre-planned event schedule across North American time zones, including weekdays, evenings, and weekends. - Able to work remotely from Latin America; the position is listed as a full-time contract.

Benefits and work setup - Coverage is scheduled around events rather than standard office hours. Most event windows are about 6.5 hours; days with several events may run 8.5 to 11 hours. The calendar is shared in advance, and non-event days may include system-administration work.
