• Automate software packaging, validation, artifact publishing, promotion, and deployment.
• Build, maintain, and troubleshoot Linux software packages, with particular emphasis on Debian-based package formats and distributions.
• Develop and maintain package bundling, installation, upgrade, rollback, dependency management, and software distribution workflows.
• Use configuration management and infrastructure automation tools such as Ansible, Chef, or Puppet to automate system configuration, software installation, and environment management.
• Use Git and CI/CD tools to build, test, validate, package, and release software reliably.
• Lead Linux platform engineering across on-premise and cloud environments, with strong hands-on experience in Debian and Debian-derived distributions such as Ubuntu.
• Apply knowledge of Linux internals, system services, process management, permissions, networking, storage, file systems, package management, and dependency management.
• Define containerization and orchestration strategies using Docker, Kubernetes, and Amazon EKS.
• Improve reliability through observability, monitoring, alerting, capacity planning, resilience engineering, and automation.
• Establish security standards for IAM, encryption, secrets management, vulnerability management, logging, compliance, and least privilege.
• Mentor engineers through coaching, documentation, design reviews, and knowledge sharing.

What you'll need
