- Collaborate on efforts to integrate Active Directory (LDAP) with Ansible for centralized access and management.
- Participate in defining and maintaining golden images and environment standards for Linux infrastructure.
- Contribute to automation strategy by building out Windows playbooks and bringing Windows infrastructure into the Ansible ecosystem.
- Support security hardening, patching, and remediation efforts across multiple Linux flavors.
- Work with business partners to resolve environment and deployment issues, improve Dev-to-Prod migration processes, and ensure best practices around NFS, permissions, and file transfer security.
What We’re Looking For
- 3+ years of experience supporting and automating Linux environments (RHEL preferred).
- Proven experience with Ansible (playbook creation, pipeline automation, CLI or Tower experience).
- Familiarity with VMware integration, Active Directory/LDAP, and infrastructure automation best practices.
