- Provision, configure, and maintain Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) and Rocky Linux compute nodes, servers, NetApp, and enterprise-grade network storage (NFS, GPFS/Spectrum Scale).
- Architect, manage, scale, and tune IBM Spectrum LSF workload schedulers, queues, user policies, and license-centric resource allocations for engineering workflows.
- Install, license, and maintain Cadence EDA software tools (Virtuoso, Innovus, Spectre) and manage FlexLM licensing servers.
- Write automation scripts in Python, Bash, or Perl to streamline Linux administration and cluster monitoring while conducting root-cause analysis on hardware, OS, and software failures.
- Maintain, optimize, and troubleshoot low-latency cluster networks, 100GbE switches, InfiniBand fabric, VLAN segmentation, and LACP configurations using tools like Wireshark.
- Implement security controls under NIST SP 800-171 and CMMC Level 2, harden Linux systems per DISA STIG standards, and configure centralized audit logging and access management.
What you'll need
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Network Engineering, or equivalent work experience.
- 5+ years of advanced Linux system administration experience supporting large-scale enterprise environments, including FIPS Red Hat Server patching and upgrades.
- Working knowledge of IBM LSF (or Slurm equivalents), including queue architecture, fairshare policies, and cluster policies.
- Hands-on experience supporting semiconductor applications (Cadence) and administering FlexLM/FlexNet license managers.
- Practical network engineering experience with high-speed switching fabrics, InfiniBand configuration, VLAN architecture, TCP/IP, DNS, BGP/OSPF, and troubleshooting tools (Wireshark, tcpdump).
- U.S. Citizenship, required due to defense-related compliance regulations.
Nice to have
- Experience in a defense, engineering, or semiconductor environment.
- Exposure to FortiGate firewalls.
- Red Hat Certified Engineer (RHCE) or Red Hat Certified System Administrator (RHCSA).
- Cisco Certified Network Professional (CCNP) or Cisco Certified Network Associate (CCNA).
- CompTIA Security+, Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP), or Certified CMMC Professional (CCP).

How we counted: 1027 open Infrastructure/Platform Software (Infrastructure Platform) roles from 93 employers tracked in the SemiconductorJobs index, counted 10 Nov 2026. Specialty figures count only roles carrying this exact specialty label, so an employer's related work in neighbouring specialties is not included there, and is counted in the wider Software, Firmware & Systems family row. Days are counted from when our index first saw each posting, not from the employer's original posting date.
