Your missions

This is a remote position.

We are seeking a talented freelance Linux Administrator to join our team. If you are a proactive problem solver with a strong background in NginX and Apache configuration, Linux Ubuntu server management, and a keen focus on security, we want to hear from you!

We are continuously on the lookout for top-tier freelancers to join our Approved Freelancers List (AFL). By joining our talent pool, you position yourself for exciting future projects with some of the world's most renowned brands and high-growth startups on the path to becoming tomorrow’s major names.

What We're Looking For:

We are recruiting candidates who are 100% freelancers—those who manage their own clients and projects independently, without being employed as full-time employees or contractors in any company. Our AFL is exclusively for professionals based in Spanish-speaking Latin American countries, and it’s essential to note that this is not a job opening for an immediate project. Instead, we are building our pool of talent for when relevant projects arise.

Joining our AFL involves the following steps:

Initial Screening Interview – We assess your fit for our future opportunities.
Technical Test – Demonstrate your expertise through a practical assessment.
Tech Interview (Project-Specific) – When a relevant project becomes available, we’ll invite you to a technical interview specific to that opportunity.

By joining our AFL, you’ll be at the forefront when new projects emerge, offering you a prime opportunity to collaborate with a dynamic and innovative team. If you’re a passionate freelancer eager to take on exciting challenges, we want to hear from you!
