About the role:

This newly created Linux Engineer position is part of the evolution toward an automated, modern infrastructure environment. Managing a local Datacenter (once / week) alongside a close-knit Brisbane team and collaborating nationally with a wider team of 7, you will support a critical fleet of Linux servers (~200+) and contribute to hybrid cloud and containerisation initiatives.

About you:

You’ll bring:

  • Proven hands-on experience with Linux system administration (preferably RHEL 7,8, 9).
  • Advanced Datacenter management, racking / stacking for hardware and vendor management
  • Practical expertise in using Ansible for automation, patching, and environment management or similar tools
  • Exposure to containerization technologies such as OpenShift (desirable).
  • Strong understanding of compute and storage environments within large-scale enterprise settings.
  • Experience supporting hybrid environments (on-premises and Azure-based cloud infrastructure).
  • A proactive, collaborative approach to technical delivery and problem-solving.
  • Previous exposure to Entra ID, hybrid cloud provisioning, or working in regulated environments would be advantageous.

Why Join?

  • Take part in a $700m transformation uplift
  • Take ownership of a 200+ Linux fleet Infrastructure
  • Enjoy a flexible workplace and with ½ days in the office
