• Use Ansible and configuration-management tools to support standardized configurations, repeatable automation, and the maintenance of scripts and workflows; contribute ideas for automation and AI-enabled automation.  
• Assist with troubleshooting Linux systems, applications, infrastructure services, and automation workflows using logs, system behavior, performance indicators, and operational results; document findings and escalate significant or recurring issues.  
• Contribute to the testing, documentation, implementation, and verification of infrastructure changes and deployments across on-premises, virtualized, and cloud environments.  
• Develop and maintain clear technical documentation with guidance, including procedures, runbooks, configuration, and automation records, troubleshooting guides, and support hand-off materials.  
• Work closely with senior engineers and infrastructure, cybersecurity, application, platform, and service partners to coordinate maintenance, resolve issues, support projects, and learn practices that improve Linux reliability and security.  
• Learn and follow corporate and divisional standards, policies, and procedures for conduct, safety, GxP compliance, data integrity, cybersecurity, access and change control, incident management, and the software development lifecycle.
