Overview

Innovatus Technology Consulting is looking for a Senior Systems Engineer to support our enterprise systems and infrastructure environment. This fully remote role focuses on managing a mix of Red Hat and Windows servers, supporting security and compliance efforts, and helping other teams with technical needs.

You’ll need an active Secret clearance (or higher) and solid hands-on experience with Linux system administration, performance monitoring, and compliance work.

What You’ll Do

  • Administer and maintain approximately 34 servers (mostly Red Hat Enterprise Linux, with a few Windows servers).
  • Support SCAP and STIG compliance activities on a quarterly and yearly basis.
  • Track, renew, and install PKI certificates on web servers and Oracle applications.
  • Run and track weekly ACAS vulnerability scans and follow up on findings.
  • Monitor system resources (OS and mid-tier) and help plan expansions when needed.
  • Apply OS security patches and upgrades as required.
  • Keep an eye on system performance at both the OS and AWS levels.
  • Support auditing requests (both planned and ad-hoc).
  • Work with the data center on SLDCADA-related issues involving network, systems, security, or user access.
  • Provide technical support to the Dev, Customer Support, and Database teams as needed.
  • Support additional projects involving partners such as USAGM, NIS, and DISA.
  • Help with application vulnerability remediation and support tools like Control-M, Track-It, and EWM/RTC.
What We’re Looking For
  • Active Secret clearance (or higher)
  • Strong hands-on skills with Red Hat Enterprise Linux (Windows experience is a plus)
  • Familiarity with STIGs, SCAP, ACAS, and PKI certificate management
  • Experience monitoring performance and capacity in both on-prem and AWS environments
  • Comfortable working with other teams and external partners
  • Experience with Control-M, Track-It, or EWM/RTC is a plus

This is a remote role focused on solid technical work with some coordination across teams.
