Workplace

Are you seeking for an opportunity to work in an environment where your expertise truly makes a difference by ensuring stability and shaping systems critical to our business operations?

We are looking for an experienced and confident Senior System Administrator with a strong background in Linux-based environments. In this role, you will not only be responsible for managing systems, but also for driving improvements, automation initiatives, and the continuous development of our technical platform.

You will join a highly competent team that values clear communication, technical depth, and a thoughtful, questioning mindset. As a part of our senior technical staff, you will be entrusted with real responsibility and the authority to influence our future direction.

About the role

As a Senior System Administrator, your responsibilities will include:

• Operation, maintenance, and continuous development of our Linux-based environments
• Automation of infrastructure configuration
• Managing infrastructure-related matters including networking, storage, and security
• Acting as an advisor and technical resource for the organization
• Proactively identifying areas for improvement and leading implementation efforts

Your profile

We see that you have:

• A minimum of 5 years' experience within system administration in large-scale Linux environments
• In-depth knowledge of Ubuntu
• A solid understanding of network concepts (TCP/IP, DNS, firewalls)
• Hands-on experience with automation and configuration management tools
• Experience working with hybrid environments (on-premises and cloud-based solutions is meritorious)
• A senior mindset — you take ownership, understand the bigger picture, and work proactively

If you're a Senior System Administrator who enjoys responsibility, technical challenges, and working in a dynamic environment, we believe you will thrive with us. We are not looking for someone who knows everything, but someone who understands their strengths and knows how to build secure, stable and scalable infrastructure.

What we offer

• A role with significant autonomy and influence over architecture and technology choices
• A technology-driven company where IT is business-critical — not a support function
• Competent colleagues who love to discuss technical details
• Flexible working hours and the option for hybrid work
• Competitive salary, occupational pension, and benefits
