Senior Systems Engineer - RHEL / VMware / Python

Sydney | Hybrid | 6-12 Month Contract

We're partnering with a well‑known Sydney enterprise that's kicking off a major infrastructure migration and modernisation program. They're after a Senior Systems Engineer who can take ownership of the low‑level technical design and delivery - someone who thrives on solving problems, automating workflows and making complex systems run smoothly.

The opportunity

- Design and implement the compute and storage foundations to support upcoming migrations

- Build, harden and operate RHEL servers across hybrid environments

- Develop automation tooling using Python and Bash to standardise deployment processes

- Create staging and rollback environments to support safe, repeatable releases

- Oversee credential management, certificate rotation and secure access controls

- Integrate monitoring, logging and SIEM feeds to provide clear operational visibility

- Contribute technical leadership throughout design, implementation and post‑migration support

What you’ll bring

- Deep hands‑on experience with RHEL administration and automation

- Strong VMware vSphere skills, including scripting and provisioning

- Practical experience automating system builds and deployments with Python or Bash

- A background in low‑level infrastructure design and migration projects

- Strong communication skills and the ability to work closely with other engineers and stakeholders

Nice to have

- Familiarity with Cisco UCS hardware

- Exposure to automation or orchestration tools such as Ansible, Terraform or Jenkins

Why you’ll like it

- Contract role (6‑12 months) with scope for extension

- Join a major enterprise project with real technical depth

- Hybrid work environment, Sydney‑based
