About this Role:

We are seeking a versatile DevOps Engineer / Systems Administrator to bridge the gap between modern DevOps practices and traditional IT infrastructure management. In this hybrid role, you will drive automation and CI/CD pipelines while also owning day-to-day sysadmin responsibilities — OS patching, certificate lifecycle management, and administration of Windows Server and IIS environments. The ideal candidate is equally comfortable writing infrastructure-as-code and troubleshooting a complex Group Policy configuration.

Key Responsibilities:

DevOps & Automation

• Design, build, and maintain CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins, GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, or equivalent)
• Manage container platforms and orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes, or similar)
• Develop and maintain infrastructure-as-code using Terraform, Ansible, or PowerShell DSC
• Automate repetitive operational tasks to reduce manual toil and improve reliability
• Monitor system health, performance, and availability; configure alerting and on-call runbooks
• Collaborate with development teams on deployment strategies, release management, and rollback procedures

Systems Administration — Windows & IIS

• Administer Windows Server environments (2016/2019/2022), including Active Directory, Group Policy, DNS, and DHCP
• Install, configure, and maintain IIS web servers; manage application pools, bindings, and site configurations
• Administer VMware vSphere environments (ESXi, vCenter): VM provisioning, snapshots, vMotion, and cluster management
• Perform routine OS patching and hotfix deployment across Windows and Linux servers on a defined cadence
• Manage SSL/TLS certificate lifecycle: procurement, installation, renewal, and monitoring expiration dates across all services
• Perform basic troubleshooting by reviewing IIS access/error logs and Windows application/system event logs to diagnose service failures, configuration errors, and performance issues
• Troubleshoot server, application, and network issues in both on-premises and cloud environments
• Maintain system documentation, runbooks, and change management records

Security & Compliance

• Apply security hardening standards (CIS benchmarks, STIGs) to servers and infrastructure
• Respond to vulnerability scan findings and remediate within defined SLA windows
• Support audit and compliance activities (SOC 2, PCI, HIPAA, or as applicable)
• Manage secrets and credential rotation for service accounts, certificates, and API keys

Qualifications/Requirements:

• 3+ years of experience in a DevOps, Site Reliability Engineering, or Systems Administration role
• Hands-on experience administering Windows Server (2016 or later), Active Directory, and Group Policy
• Proven experience configuring and troubleshooting IIS (application pools, SSL bindings, request filtering, logging)
• Solid understanding of SSL/TLS certificate management, including procurement from public CAs, Let’s Encrypt/ACME automation, installation, and proactive renewal workflows
• Hands-on experience with VMware vSphere (ESXi 7+/8, vCenter) and/or Azure VMware Solution (AVS)
• Experience with OS patching workflows for both Windows (WSUS, SCCM, or equivalent) and Linux (yum/apt)
• Familiarity with at least one CI/CD platform (GitHub Actions, Jenkins, GitLab CI, Azure DevOps, or similar)
• Scripting proficiency in PowerShell and at least one of: Bash, Python, or Go
• Working knowledge of networking fundamentals: TCP/IP, DNS, HTTP/S, load balancers, firewalls
• Experience deploying or managing workloads in a public cloud (AWS, Azure, or GCP)
• Strong written communication skills for runbooks, change requests, and postmortems

Preferred:

• Familiarity with NSX-T or VMware HCX for network virtualization and workload migration
• Experience planning or executing on-premises VMware workload migrations to AVS
• Experience with Kubernetes (EKS, AKS, GKE, or self-hosted) and Helm chart management
• Proficiency with infrastructure-as-code tools: Terraform and/or Ansible
• Familiarity with HashiCorp Vault or equivalent for secrets management and certificate automation
• Experience with observability stacks: Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, Splunk, or ELK
• Exposure to Windows Admin Center, System Center, or Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager (MECM/SCCM)
• Knowledge of certificate automation via ACME protocol, ADCS, or a managed PKI solution
• Relevant certifications: Microsoft (AZ-104, AZ-400, MCSA), AWS (SAA, DevOps Pro), RHCE/RHCSA, or CompTIA (Linux+, Security+)
• Experience in a regulated environment (SOC 2, HIPAA, PCI-DSS, FedRAMP)

Additional Requirements / Skills / Working Hours / Compensation Range

• Must be able to pass a background check in accordance with client and project requirements

What’s In It For You:

• Comprehensive core benefits (medical, dental, vision)
• Employer-paid life and disability coverage
• A wide range of voluntary benefits, including pet insurance, pre-paid legal, hospitalization, critical illness, and accident insurance
