About Dalhousie University

Dalhousie University is Atlantic Canada’s leading research-intensive university and a driver of the region’s intellectual, social and economic development. Located in the heart of Halifax, Nova Scotia, with an Agricultural Campus in Truro/Bible Hill, Dalhousie is a truly national and international university, with more than half of our almost 21,000 students coming from outside of the province. Our 6,000 faculty and staff foster a vibrant, purpose-driven community, that celebrated 200 years of academic excellence in 2018.

Job Summary

Information Technology Services ( ITS ) empowers the success of students, faculty, and staff through an overall focus on service, advising and consulting. ITS supports university instructional research and administrative requirements. The department is responsible for all centrally managed computing, networking, security, and telecommunications facilities within the university. Reporting to the Head of Research Partnerships, the Research Systems Administrator will design, implement, and support secure, reliable, and scalable research computing environments, working closely with researchers, principal investigators, and campus partners to help them identify appropriate technology solutions and ensure those solutions meet institutional security, operational, and sustainability requirements.

Key Responsibilities

Provide hands-on technical support for on-premise research infrastructure as well as cloud-based research environments, including highly secure workloads hosted in Amazon Web Services ( AWS ) and other approved cloud services.
Act as a technical consultant, helping researchers navigate technology choices, compliance requirements and consumption costs, and support models involving internal and external partners such as the Digital Research Alliance of Canada.
Design, deploy, configure, and support on‑premise and cloud-based research systems. Establish appropriate monitoring for preemptive detection or incident response. Participate in incident response. Triage and diagnose incidents.
Support sensitive and regulated research projects. Implement security controls and collaborate with Information Security and Research Services teams. Ensure security configuration satisfies intended security posture.
Communicate complex technical concepts clearly to non‑technical stakeholders. Produce documentation, recommendations, and decision support materials for research projects and initiatives.
Monitor hardware, storage, virtual servers, backups, etc. in a scheduled and continuous way. Plan capacity for systems and storage to ensure reliability and performance. Perform restores, patches and updates.

Note

The incumbents will be required to work at irregular times occasionally to limit the disruption of service. Scheduling and compensation will be in accordance with the collective agreement.

The successful applicant will be eligible for hybrid work (combination of in-person work on campus and remote work from within Nova Scotia) as agreed by all parties based on operational requirements and university guidelines.

Required Qualifications

Undergraduate degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, or a related field plus approximately five years’ relevant experience (or equivalent combination of training and experience).
Experience in managing research technologies and infrastructure such as on‑premise Network Attached Storage and Storage Area Network systems, cloud‑based research computing and storage (e.g. AWS ), secure and regulated research environments, Linux‑based research computing platforms, and hybrid campus–national research infrastructure models.
Demonstrated familiarity with data backup and recovery strategies, including snapshotting, replication, and disaster recovery planning as well as knowledge of security best practices and experience implementing access controls, encryption, and data classification methodologies.
Experience in a research or academic environment and troubleshooting technology-related issues effectively as well as proficiency in scripting languages and automation tools.
Excellent problem-solving, organizational skills with strong attention to detail and the ability to manage multiple tasks simultaneously.
Strong interpersonal and communication skills to collaborate and consult with diverse teams and stakeholders including faculty and researchers.
