Corvid Technologies runs a supercomputer with an environment built on both hardware and free, opensource virtualization and containerization, turning over up to 50TB of new data on a daily basis, to solve engineering problems other companies fail to solve. Our numerical solvers are developed in-house by our engineers and developers, providing customers with customized solutions to a variety of difficult problems. We are seeking a Linux specialist of the same caliber to join our technical team and support our command line-only infrastructure. Our ideal candidate can work without depending on Google, external customer support, paid support subscriptions, 3rd party paid apps, or needing GUI interface and Windows servers to manage systems.
What you'll do:
Install, configure, and troubleshoot RHEL 7/8 operating system issues on air gapped networks
Frequent use and understanding of man pages
Debug hardware and software problems on our Linux infrastructure
Write custom scripts to automate system tasks and troubleshoot server or network issues
Improve skillset and gain new knowledge
Who we want:
An individual with strong attention to detail and consistent work (all systems are configured the same, any changes are applied to all the systems at once)
Ability to problem-solve with minimal guidance and supervision
Strong understanding of RHEL 7/8 features, built-in commands, tools, and configuration files
Ability to thrive in a high-paced environment (Corvid has zero downtime and an external customer downtime limit of 8hrs per customer contract)
Strong scripting background in languages such as Python or Bash
Excellent research skills with a strong focus on testing implementations before executing in production
Bonus: experience with distributed storage systems (beegfs, ceph) and/or server hardware.
Requirements:
Bachelor's degree in a technical field (mathematics, engineering, computer sciences, physics, etc.)
Proficiency test demonstrating command line capabilities without internet resources, external guidance, and limited peripherals
Ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. security clearance
Excellent sense of humor
Preferences:
Experience with scientific and/or engineering code development
Configuration management and automation (e.g. Ansible, Salt, Puppet, CFEngine, Chef)
Broad understanding of network technologies and security
Experience with Git version control
Experience with RHEL derivatives like CentOS, specifically EL 7 and 8.
Active security clearance
Why Corvid?
Founded in 2004, we are a group of over 300 engineers and scientists, about three-quarters of whom hold master's degrees or PhDs, that provide end-to-end solutions, including concept development, design and optimization, prototype build, test, and manufacture. We leverage the predictive capabilities of our high-fidelity computational physics solvers, indigenous massively parallel supercomputer system, prototyping plant, and ballistics and mechanics lab to investigate a variety of high-rate physics phenomena.
The results are complex engineering solutions for a range of applications: aircraft, ballistic missile defense, cybersecurity, motorsports, armor development, biological systems, and missile and warhead design and development. These results are achieved with optimal design and cost efficiency due to the predictive capability of Corvid's tools and our in-house, end-to-end integrated approach, which differentiates Corvid from the market.
