  • You also want to work with Veritas Clustering/Storage Foundation, RedHat clustering, Solaris ZFS (Zettabyte File System) and EMC/Hitachi SAN storage products.
  • You are keen to monitor the environment and identify any issues which could be of a risk and then rectify.
  • You enjoy working on automation by using Ansible for implementing changes, patching, fixing security vulnerabilities and writing scripts for system monitoring.
  • You take pride in aiding with project management functions during all stages of requirements rollout including assessment, planning, initiation, implementation, and management.
  • You like the challenge to assist in the identification, development and maintenance of policies and procedures that are relevant to the proper operational functions of the Unix infrastructure.
  • As part of your “DNA”, you are detail-oriented, proactive, have an eagerness to learn and thrive on challenges.
  • You are willing to mentor and coach more junior members of the team sharing your knowledge to grow the team through the individuals.


 
Do you have the skills that will enable you to succeed in this role? We'd love to work with you if you have:

  • You can demonstrate excellent communication (verbal/written) skills.
  • You have at least 10+ years of hands-on technical working experience with the system administration, recovery, configuration & troubleshooting of Solaris (versions 10/11) and Red Hat Linux (versions 7/8) Operating Systems.

  • You have at least 10+ years of hands-on technical working experience with the configuration, administration, builds and troubleshooting of Veritas/Symantec Storage Foundation (VSF) & Veritas/Symantec Cluster Services.
  • You have at least 10+ years of hands-on technical working experience with Network Information Service (NIS), Network File System (NFS), Solaris Zones & Solaris Logical Domains (LDoms).
  • You can demonstrate a very good technical working knowledge on SAN / NAS storage file systems and Virtualization platforms/technologies.

  • You have good problem solving, troubleshooting and analytical skills.
  • You can work well under pressure with time constraints and can prioritize competing priorities appropriately.
  • You have completed a post-secondary education in Computer Science, Engineering or in a related field of study.
