- Develop detailed documentation for installation procedures, configurations, and deployment playbooks
- Build strong relationships with onsite system administrators to streamline troubleshooting and escalation
- Identify gaps in support coverage and recommend improvements to reduce downtime and response time
- Partner with engineering teams to optimize system performance and user workflows
- Maintain clear technical documentation, diagrams, and standard operating procedures
- Support virtualization initiatives and contribute to long-term infrastructure modernization efforts
- Adapt to evolving requirements, including cloud integration, AWS environments, and AI/LLM infrastructure
Skills Requirements
- Strong Linux systems administration experience in operational environments
- Experience installing and maintaining GPU-accelerated or high-performance compute systems, particularly NVIDIA enterprise hardware
- Demonstrated ability to document technical processes clearly and professionally
- Experience working within structured data center or warehouse environments
- Familiarity with virtualization technologies and hypervisors
- Ability to troubleshoot hardware and software issues across networked systems
- Strong communication skills and experience working directly with users and stakeholders
- Proven ability to operate independently while coordinating with distributed support teams
Nice to Haves
- Forward-leaning mindset with a focus on improving user experience

- Strong relationship-building skills with onsite technical teams
- Interest in expanding into cloud technologies, AWS environments, and AI/LLM infrastructure
- Experience building documentation and processes that improve operational efficiency over time
