Using the discrete mathematical concept of sparse matrix graphs, these applications solve problems in manufacturing, retail, and law enforcement. This approach, plus big data sets, create challenging problems for our Operations and Engineering teams. We are looking for a Linux System Administrator to join our team.</p><h1 style="box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 2.25em; margin: 1em 0px 16px; line-height: 1.2; position: relative; padding-bottom: 0.3em; border-bottom-width: 1px; border-bottom-style: solid; border-bottom-color: rgb(238, 238, 238); color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, 'Segoe UI', Arial, freesans, sans-serif;"></h1><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 16px; color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, 'Segoe UI', Arial, freesans, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 25.600000381469727px;"><strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">Skills & Requirements</strong></p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 16px; color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, 'Segoe UI', Arial, freesans, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 25.600000381469727px;"><strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">Our needs vary from:</strong></p><ul class="task-list" style="box-sizing: border-box; padding: 0px 0px 0px 2em; margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 16px; color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, 'Segoe UI', Arial, freesans, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 25.600000381469727px;"><li style="box-sizing: border-box;"><strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">Cloud Infrastructure Design & Monitoring:</strong> We have four products with multiple customer instances and varied capabilities.</li><li style="box-sizing: border-box;"><strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">Determine Strategies to Deploy Products Behind Customer Firewalls:</strong> Often customers do not want data to leave their premise; we must package our applications to be delivered onto systems outside our direct control.

He or she will enjoy the creative control over the systems they deploy while working with the team to balance trade-offs and vet ideas.</li><li style="box-sizing: border-box;"><strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">Research:</strong> We never know what new problems we will have to solve. We are seeking someone who might not have direct experience with something like configuration management or automation, but is able to read the docs, prop up a test bed, and with a little time, understand the tool or library enough to make an informed recommendation.</li><li style="box-sizing: border-box;"><strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">Personal Interest:</strong> Our best technical people love what they do, in and out of the office.
