Add breadth and depth to your systems administration skills, your understanding of network topologies in a cloud-based environment and your overall troubleshooting skills as a Systems Administrator/Technical Consultant. Based in Los Angeles, you’ll gain invaluable hands-on infrastructure experience as you solve challenging technical problems.
Working in concert with senior-caliber infrastructure consultants, you’ll gain mastery of the nuances of more complex
solution requirements, within both traditional and cloud-based infrastructure environments. On our small and
collaborative team, your innovative ideas will be recognized, ratified and rewarded.
Ideal candidates have experience a solid background in Linux/Windows systems administration. Cloud Services hosts many diverse Axway products, and it will take a continual learning mentality for you to understand how the
applications and infrastructure interrelate. While an understanding of Windows administration is great, your top-notch
Linux admin skills, networking experience, and understanding of web servers and B2B solutions will pay even greater
dividends. Standouts in this role are excellent troubleshooters and root cause analysts, for whom this aspect of the
job is done more out of love than duty. You’ll step into a situation where supporting a production environment is key
and when troubles arise you will work to identify the cause, resolve it and effectively save the day.
