Job description

Job Overview :

We are looking for a highly experienced Linux Infrastructure Engineer with deep expertise in traditional Linux administration, bare metal infrastructure, and enterprise storage. This role is not focused on DevOps or cloud-native engineering. We already have a strong DevOps team and are looking for someone with extensive hands-on experience designing, building, administering, and troubleshooting large-scale Linux infrastructure.

Key Responsibility & Required Skills

Expert-level Linux administration (Ubuntu required; Red Hat and SUSE preferred)
Deep expertise in bare metal server deployment, architecture, and administration
Strong understanding of server hardware, including BIOS, RAID, firmware, iLO/iDRAC/IPMI, NICs, HBA cards, and hardware troubleshooting
Experience designing and administering enterprise Linux infrastructure
Advanced Linux storage administration:
- LVM
- XFS, EXT4
- NFS
- iSCSI
- Fibre Channel SAN
- Multipath I/O
Strong hands-on experience with Ceph, including:
- Cluster architecture
- MON, OSD, MDS
- RBD, CephFS, RGW
- Capacity planning
- Performance tuning
- Failure recovery
Strong networking knowledge (bonding, VLANs, routing, MTU, DNS, DHCP)
Experience with high availability, clustering, and disaster recovery
Strong troubleshooting skills across Linux OS, hardware, networking, and storage
Bash and Python scripting for automation

Nice to Have

Kubernetes infrastructure (especially storage integration)
VMware or KVM
Ansible
AWS/Azure exposure

We are not looking for

Candidates whose experience is primarily CI/CD pipeline engineering
Engineers focused mainly on Terraform, GitOps, or container platforms
Cloud-only administrators with limited bare metal or infrastructure experience

Ideal candidate: Someone who has spent years running enterprise Linux environments, building servers from the hardware up, architecting storage platforms, and solving complex OS, hardware, and storage issues. DevOps experience is a plus, but traditional Linux infrastructure expertise is the primary requirement.
