Senior Infrastructure Automation Engineer

Summary We're hiring a Senior Infrastructure Automation Engineer to automate how we run, report on and health-check our Linux, storage and backup environment. You'll write Python and Ansible to replace manual work: Linux patching, storage quota and file reporting, backup reporting, and health checks across the infrastructure. You'll join the DevOps team and work closely with the engineers who run these platforms every day.

The tools you build will be used across multiple client environments. The work involves on-premises infrastructure, including physical and virtual Linux servers, storage clusters, and backup systems in client data centers. Cloud experience (AWS, Azure, GCP) isn’t required.

Core

Linux patching automation: Build and maintain Ansible playbooks that patch Linux servers end to end: pre-checks, patching, reboots, post-checks and compliance reporting. Server build automation: Automate Linux server builds with Ansible so every new physical or virtual server is deployed to a consistent, hardened standard. Storage: Build reports on file data (ownership, age, size, growth and quotas) by pulling data from various systems and databases.

Backup: Pull data from APIs to report on backup success, failures, missed clients and retention. API integration: Write Python tools that collect and combine data from REST APIs (storage, backup and infrastructure platforms) into clear, scheduled reports. Health checks: Develop tools that check the health of storage and
