The title suggests a traditional job scheduling profile, but the qualifications describe an infrastructure administration profile equipped with DevOps tooling: AWS, Terraform, Ansible, Git, CI/CD and scripting. The platform in scope is the organization's job orchestrator, a critical platform to operate and evolve, not only to monitor. Modernization stands out in the mandate: driving automation, supporting user teams and contributing to the future vision and architecture. One paradox to note: knowledge of Automic and $Universe, central to the mandate, is listed only as an asset. One position is open, for 6 months.
Target candidate: an enterprise platform administrator who automates infrastructure (Terraform, Ansible, scripting) across Linux, Windows Server and AWS, and who has operated or evolved a critical production platform. Hands-on experience with a job scheduler, Automic or $Universe first, separates two otherwise equivalent profiles.
