Senior Automation Engineer
Cannon Search
I’m recruiting for a Senior Infrastructure Automation Engineer to join an established automation team within a fintech company.
Remote, permanent role with excellent compensation, annual bonus, and health benefits.
The two most important requirements are deep, hands-on experience with Ansible and Terraform , plus an earlier background managing Linux or Windows servers .
The ideal candidate started as a Systems or Infrastructure engineer, gained strong experience managing actual server environments, and later moved into advanced infrastructure automation.
This is not a CI/CD-focused DevOps role or a cloud-only position. The company needs someone who understands the infrastructure underneath the automation and can personally build, maintain, and troubleshoot it.
What they’re looking for:
- Advanced, hands-on experience with both Ansible and Terraform
- Previous experience as a Linux or Windows Systems Engineer
- Experience managing on-premises, virtualized, or physical server environments
- Experience automating infrastructure across on-premises and cloud environments
- Ability to write and maintain Terraform modules, Ansible playbooks, and reusable roles
- A deep understanding of server provisioning, configuration, patching, and lifecycle management
- The technical depth to make architect-level decisions while remaining highly hands-on
Interviewing Now! If your background combines traditional systems engineering with advanced infrastructure automation, apply today or email your resume directly to dan Gilliam, email:
