Job Description:
Systems Engineer
Location: Englewood, Colorado (Hybrid)
Role Overview
We are seeking a Systems Engineer III to support the lifecycle management of enterprise applications and systems within a lab environment. This role centers on systems administration and data analytics, with a secondary emphasis on application support. The ideal candidate is a well-rounded systems engineer who can administer Linux/Windows environments, analyze and reconcile data across systems, and support the applications the team manages. This position is for a strong generalist with solid fundamentals who can learn our platforms and grow into ownership over time.
Key Responsibilities

• Perform day-to-day systems administration across Linux and Windows server environments (patching, updates, configuration, monitoring, and maintenance).
• Support data accuracy and integrity efforts, including data analysis, reconciliation, cleanup, and reporting across managed platforms.
• Provide application support for team-managed enterprise applications, including troubleshooting, access management, and coordination with vendors and other lab teams.
• Assist with automation and scripting to streamline routine operational and reporting tasks.
• Document procedures, runbooks, and configurations to maintain accurate operational records.
• Collaborate with partner teams to support cross-functional initiatives.
• Adhere to security and compliance standards, including role-based access control (RBAC) and access-governance practices.

Must-Have Qualifications

• 3+ years of hands-on systems administration experience (Linux and/or Windows Server).
• Demonstrated experience with data analysis and reporting (e.g., manipulating, reconciling, and validating data across systems using tools such as SQL, Excel, or scripting).
• Proficiency with scripting/automation (e.g., Python, Bash, or PowerShell).
• Strong troubleshooting and problem-solving skills across systems and applications.
• Solid understanding of core networking and infrastructure fundamentals.
• Ability to document work clearly and follow structured operational processes.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills and the ability to collaborate across teams.
• Familiarity with security and access-control principles (e.g., RBAC).

Nice-to-Have Qualifications

• Working knowledge of how IPAM (IP Address Management) and DNS function at a fundamental level.
• Fundamentals of application support engineering (application lifecycle, access provisioning, vendor coordination).
• Exposure to platforms such as NetBox, Infoblox, or PowerDNS (familiarity, not expertise, is sufficient).
• Experience with monitoring tools (e.g., Zabbix, Grafana) or ticketing/ITSM systems (e.g., Jira).
• Experience working in a lab, data center, or enterprise infrastructure environment.
• Familiarity with version control (Git) and CI/CD concepts.
• Experience with API-based data integration or automation between systems.
