Full description from employer
SAIC is seeking a Mid-Level Linux Support Administrator/Engineer to support the design, development, configuration, and maintenance of Linux-based embedded platforms supporting mission-critical environments. This is a highly hands-on role focused on building, configuring, and troubleshooting Linux systems that support software engineering and operational teams.
This opportunity is ideal for an engineer who has moved beyond entry-level support responsibilities and is ready to take ownership of subsystems, solve complex technical challenges, and contribute to system-level design and support activities. The selected candidate will assume much of the day-to-day Linux support work currently handled by the manager, allowing leadership to focus on strategic initiatives.
This role also offers a strong growth path into a future leadership position. This role is 100% on-site at SAIC’s Sterling, VA office.
