Developer Senior Contractor

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.
