Cloud-only administrators with limited bare metal, storage, or hardware experience

Professionals whose primary expertise is software development rather than infrastructure engineering

Someone who has spent years designing, building, and operating enterprise Linux environments, large-scale bare metal infrastructure, storage platforms, and modern AI Factory environments. The ideal candidate understands how to deploy and manage GPU-enabled infrastructure, BMaaS platforms, enterprise storage, and high-performance networking while solving complex operating system, hardware, storage, and AI infrastructure challenges. DevOps experience is a plus, but deep Linux, infrastructure, storage, BMaaS, and AI Factory expertise is the primary requirement.
