SysOps Engineer — Hardware & Secure Infrastructure

Role overview Build and operate physical and hybrid infrastructure spanning company-controlled hardware, cloud capacity, and secure customer installations. The role covers the server lifecycle from component selection and burn-in through deployment and ongoing operations, with responsibility for environments where data may need to remain on site.

Responsibilities - Select, assemble, test, and deploy GPU compute servers, storage systems, and network equipment. - Manage colocation and on-premises fleets, including provisioning, firmware and BIOS updates, out-of-band access, capacity planning, and hardware lifecycle. - Set up restricted-network or air-gapped installations, applying disk encryption, key management, and physical and network hardening. - Operate connectivity and monitoring across owned hardware and cloud burst capacity, including VPN or WireGuard meshes. - Automate repeatable infrastructure work with configuration management, infrastructure-as-code, image building, scripts, and operational runbooks. - Take part in an on-call rotation and own the reliability of deployed infrastructure.

Requirements - At least six years operating physical infrastructure, including hands-on server building and datacenter work. - Strong Linux administration and networking fundamentals, including VLANs, firewalls, and basic BGP. - Experience securing restricted or regulated environments, including encryption at rest and compliance-driven hardening. - Proficiency with infrastructure-as-code and configuration management; ability to use Python or shell to automate operational tasks.

Nice to have - Experience operating GPU clusters, including drivers, CUDA, thermal constraints, and power budgeting.
