DevOps Engineer 1
About The Position
We are seeking a DevOps Engineer I to join a hybrid operational team supporting both Windows Server Infrastructure and Security Administration functions. This role is ideal for an early-career engineer who enjoys solving infrastructure problems through automation, scripting, and AI-assisted development rather than repetitive ticket handling. This is not a traditional “close tickets and move on” operations role. The ideal candidate will think critically about root causes, identify recurring operational pain points, and build sustainable solutions that improve reliability, security, and operational efficiency across the environment. You will work closely with senior infrastructure and security engineers while gaining hands-on experience in enterprise server operations, automation, monitoring, compliance, and incident response. After onboarding and training, this role will participate in the team’s on-call rotation.

- Fundamental understanding of Windows Server administration
- Experience with scripting or automation languages such as PowerShell, Python, or Bash
- Ability to leverage AI-assisted tools for scripting, automation, and operational problem-solving
- Familiarity with Active Directory concepts and identity management
- Basic understanding of networking concepts (DNS, DHCP, TCP/IP, certificates, firewalls)
- Experience troubleshooting server or infrastructure issues in production environments
- Familiarity with monitoring, logging, or ticketing systems
- Understanding of security best practices for infrastructure operations
- Strong problem-solving and troubleshooting skills
- Ability to research unfamiliar technologies independently
- Interest in automation and infrastructure-as-code concepts
- Desire to solve root causes rather than repeatedly addressing symptoms
- Willingness to learn enterprise operational and security processes
- Strong written and verbal communication skills
- Ability to work independently while collaborating within a team
- Comfortable operating in a fast-paced enterprise environment
- Willingness to participate in an after-hours on-call rotation after training
