• Develop and refine a standalone Ubuntu‑based installer for deploying the ScanOS product across distributed VM environments.
• Build, configure, and optimize VM templates, disk images, and cluster configurations for consistent on‑premise deployment.
• Integrate automated build, packaging, and deployment processes into Jenkins and Bitbucket pipelines.
• Create, manage, and version Software Bills of Materials (SBOMs) to support traceability and compliance.
• Collaborate with Sec Ops to run vulnerability scans, interpret findings, and support remediation activities.
• Provide deployment support to local and remote engineering teams, ensuring smooth rollout of clustered systems.
• Develop, document, and continuously improve procedures for installation, cluster orchestration, troubleshooting, and lifecycle maintenance.
• Contribute to the evolution of Dev Ops tooling, automation frameworks, and best practices across the organization.

• Strong understanding of Linux operating systems, especially Ubuntu.
• Hands‑on experience with virtualization platforms such as VMware ESXi and/or Proxmox, ideally in clustered or multi‑node environments.
• Experience with deployment automation, VM templating, and repeatable provisioning workflows.
• Knowledge of networking fundamentals, including Docker networking and virtualized network topologies.
• Exposure to scripting or programming languages such as Python, C++, or JavaScript (React experience a plus).
• Familiarity with CI/CD tools (e.g., Jenkins, Bitbucket Pipelines) and automated build systems.
• Strong analytical and problem‑solving abilities, especially in distributed or multi‑VM environments.
• Excellent communication and teamwork skills.
• High attention to detail and strong organizational skills, with the ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously.
• Understanding of Dev Ops and Agile methodologies.
