Senior Linux Systems Engineer (Production Support)

If you're the engineer people call when Linux systems go sideways, keep reading.

We're hiring a Linux Systems Engineer to support mission-critical enterprise software used by customers who depend on uptime. This is a hands-on production support role where you'll troubleshoot live Linux environments, investigate complex issues, work closely with engineering teams, and keep critical systems running.

This isn't a help desk position, and it isn't a pure DevOps role. We're looking for someone who enjoys digging into problems, working from the Linux command line, and owning issues through resolution.

What You'll Be Doing

● Troubleshoot production Linux environments (RHEL/CentOS/Ubuntu)

● Investigate application, OS, and infrastructure issues

● Analyze logs and perform root cause analysis

● Support VMware and cloud-based environments

● Perform patching, upgrades, and system maintenance

● Collaborate with developers, customers, and internal engineering teams

● Participate in a rotating on-call schedule (additional compensation provided)

What We're Looking For

● Strong Linux administration and command-line troubleshooting experience

● Experience supporting production systems in a 24/7 environment

● VMware experience

● Familiarity with networking fundamentals (TCP/IP, DNS, SSH)

● Experience with Bash, Ansible, or other automation tools is a plus

● SIP/VoIP experience is helpful but not required

Why Join?

● Work on mission-critical enterprise systems

● Collaborative engineering team with real technical challenges

● Competitive salary + bonus

● Hybrid schedule (2 days/week onsite in Lyndhurst, NJ)

● Excellent opportunity to grow your Linux expertise in a production environment
