Job Summary
In this role, you will manage complex infrastructure by operating Linux servers, networks, and storage systems while ensuring secure and reliable hybrid environments and implementing automated workflows.
Job Technologies
Your role in the team
- At ARX Robotics, you will operate the infrastructure that supports next-generation autonomous robotic systems across hybrid and restricted environments.
- As a (Senior) Infrastructure Engineer - Linux, Network & Physical Systems, you will help build and maintain the operational backbone behind secure, reliable, and recoverable engineering and deployment environments.
- While the role is not primarily a cloud engineering role, ARX operates in a hybrid environment across physical infrastructure, restricted environments, public cloud, and SaaS.
- You should therefore be comfortable working at the boundaries between on-prem systems, cloud platforms, identity, networking, monitoring, and security controls.
- This role is designed for someone who genuinely enjoys infrastructure engineering.
- Whether you run a home lab, self-host services, build networks for fun, or care deeply about reliable Linux systems and clean operational practices, your mindset will fit well here.
- You will work hands-on across Linux systems, networking, storage, monitoring, backup, and recovery while helping shape scalable infrastructure operations for demanding and security-conscious environments.
- Operate and maintain Linux servers, virtualization platforms, storage systems, backups, and monitoring infrastructure.
- Configure and troubleshoot physical networking including switches, VLANs, routing, firewalling, cabling, and rack/server infrastructure.
- Support VPN, ZTNA, DNS, routing, segmentation, and hybrid connectivity across operational environments.
- Build and maintain hardened infrastructure baselines, patch management processes, backup verification, and recovery procedures.
- Contribute to secure and scalable infrastructure operations across restricted and non-restricted environments.
- Establish and improve monitoring, alerting, logging, and operational observability for critical systems.
- Support controlled infrastructure operations including access management, audit logging, environment separation, and operational evidence collection.
- Help maintain clear operational boundaries between public, internal, and restricted infrastructure environments.
- Automate repetitive operational tasks using scripting and infrastructure tooling.
- Support cloud-connected infrastructure patterns, including identity federation, logging export, monitoring integration, backup paths, and secure connectivity between physical, virtual, and cloud environments.
- Work with platform and cloud engineers on infrastructure-as-code, landing-zone guardrails, and operational standards where Linux, networking, storage, or hybrid connectivity meet public cloud infrastructure.
- Participate in incident response, recovery testing, operational readiness, and future on-call operations.
- Contribute to documentation, operational runbooks, and long-term infrastructure reliability practices.

Our expectations of you
Qualifications
- Solid understanding of networking fundamentals including TCP/IP, DNS, routing, VLANs, VPN/ZTNA, firewalling, and segmentation.
- Confidence troubleshooting issues across Linux systems, networking, storage, and infrastructure operations.
- Understanding of the discipline required in restricted or regulated environments, including least-privilege access, documented changes, backup verification, and controlled information handling.
- Strong analytical and organizational skills with a practical, hands-on approach to infrastructure engineering.
- Familiarity with at least one major cloud platform or sovereign cloud environment, especially around networking, IAM, logging, compute, storage, or infrastructure-as-code, is beneficial.
- Please note: You do not need to meet every single requirement to apply. We welcome motivated candidates who are eager to grow into the role and develop their expertise further.
Experience
- Strong hands-on experience operating and maintaining Linux-based systems in production environments.
- Experience managing physical or virtual infrastructure including servers, storage systems, virtualization platforms, backups, and monitoring solutions.
- Experience automating workflows using Bash, Python, Ansible, Terraform, or similar tooling.
- Security-conscious mindset with practical experience in access management, patching, logging, and operational separation.
- Experience with VS-NfD environments, defense-sector IT, SINA-based systems, classified infrastructure, or accreditation-oriented operations is highly valuable.
- Experience with monitoring and observability platforms such as Grafana, Prometheus, Loki, ELK, or Zabbix is beneficial.
- Personal projects or experience related to Linux, self-hosting, networking, hardware, or home lab environments are highly appreciated.
