What you will do

• Design and develop end-to-end computing platforms for semiconductor inspection products, covering compute, storage, networking, firewalls, operating systems, virtualization, and containers.
• Build and maintain an infrastructure-as-code stack with Ansible, Bash, and Python to provision Linux platforms from bare metal to production-ready systems.
• Optimize compute, I/O, storage, and network performance for data-intensive workloads and create reproducible high-level designs and operational documentation.
• Design and execute full-stack validation plans, define release-readiness gates, and automate configuration verification across host fleets.
• Provide Tier-4 escalation and root-cause analysis for production systems in air-gapped customer fabs, covering networks, firewalls, hypervisors, storage, operating systems, and applications.
• Harden platforms for security, reliability, and supportability and maintain R&D labs that mirror production environments.

Requirements

• Over 10 years of hands-on experience in on-premise infrastructure engineering.
• Production administration of Linux servers, including Ubuntu or the RHEL family, package management, systemd, users and permissions, NFS, filesystem hierarchy, networking, sudo, SELinux or AppArmor, and firewalls or nftables.
• Hands-on experience with VMware, Hyper-V, or Proxmox, including VM lifecycle, networking, and resource allocation.
• Hands-on SAN/NAS experience with iSCSI and NFS, distributed storage, and RAID or equivalent volume management.
• Experience configuring managed switches with VLANs, trunking, and link aggregation, troubleshooting L2/L3 issues, and using Wireshark to analyze traffic.
• Experience writing and managing rules for appliance-based firewalls.
• Experience building and managing Docker or Podman container images and deploying containerized applications in production.
• Experience operating Kubernetes clusters and writing and applying Deployments, Services, and ConfigMaps.
• Strong Ansible plus Bash and/or Python skills used as primary tools, with a disciplined, version-controlled, reviewable, and idempotent infrastructure-as-code approach.
• B.Sc. in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Information Systems, or an equivalent technical discipline.
• Fluent written and verbal English for daily collaboration with the Bangalore team.

Nice to have

• Experience designing or operating systems in air-gapped or fully offline environments.
• Background in semiconductor equipment, industrial automation, embedded systems, or other hardware-coupled software environments.
• Exposure to on-premise CI/CD pipelines such as Jenkins, GitLab CI, GitHub Actions, or Azure DevOps.
• Familiarity with on-premise observability tools including Grafana, Prometheus, ELK, or iperf.
• Experience using AI agents in daily engineering workflows.
• Active Directory and selective Windows administration experience alongside Linux.

Culture & Benefits

• End-to-end ownership under a you-build-it-you-run-it DevOps model.
• Work on air-gapped, high-performance systems supporting semiconductor manufacturing and customer fabs.
• Broad engineering stack spanning Linux, virtualization, containers, Kubernetes, distributed storage, networking, firewalls, and infrastructure as code.
• Opportunity to grow from on-premise systems engineering into development-oriented infrastructure engineering.
• International collaboration with global peers on a shared product.
• Supportive environment focused on learning, professional growth, health, and wellbeing.
