Job Details We are seeking a mid-to-senior-level CAS/COTS Systems Integration Engineer to integrate, configure, implement, troubleshoot, maintain, and support Commercial Off-the-Shelf (COTS) software and hardware within Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL)-based development, integration, and operational environments. This is a systems integration position—not simply a Linux administration role. The ideal candidate understands how operating systems, applications, hardware, displays, networking, storage, virtualization, security controls, and automation work together.

You'll be responsible for identifying and resolving complex technical issues across these interconnected systems while supporting both engineering environments and deployed operational systems.

Key Responsibilities Install, configure, upgrade, integrate, and troubleshoot COTS software and associated hardware. Implement, configure, maintain, and support Red Hat Enterprise Linux environments. Support workstation and thin-client architectures involving GNOME, RDP, headless displays, and virtualized monitors. Perform kernel and package updates across RHEL 7, 8, and 10 environments. Manage DNF packages and local software repositories. Develop Bash scripts and Ansible automation to support system configuration and operational efficiency.

Use Git for configuration management, including cloning repositories, committing changes, and managing branches and merges. Diagnose system performance and latency issues across CPU, memory, storage I/O, networking, virtualization, applications, and remote displays. Work within SELinux and FIPS-enabled environments. Troubleshoot integration issues involving physical servers, workstations, displays, peripherals, KVMs, networking equipment, storage systems, virtualization platforms, operating systems, and applications. Support both development/integration environments and deployed operational systems.

Collaborate with other engineering disciplines, customers, and vendors to identify root causes and resolve technical issues. Maintain accurate technical documentation, including configuration records, implementation…
