Infrastructure Engineer
Dallas, TX | Remote
This position is the architect of the Strike Global physical layer. As an Infrastructure Engineer, you will be responsible for the design, deployment, and optimization of the bare-metal and network substrate that powers our global execution. You will work at the edge of the technical frontier, ensuring our hardware and networks operate with absolute fidelity and minimal latency.
We are seeking an engineer who understands that in high-frequency environments, the infrastructure is the strategy. You are not just managing servers; you are engineering the Continuum.
Responsibilities
Bare-Metal Orchestration: Design and maintain a high-performance Linux environment. You will be responsible for low-level system tuning (kernel bypass, CPU isolation, memory management) to ensure deterministic execution.
Network Architecture: Engineer and optimize low-latency network fabrics. This includes the management of high-performance switches (Arista/Cisco) and the implementation of precision time protocols (PTP).
Hardware Lifecycle: Own the selection, benchmarking, and deployment of high-tier server and network hardware. You will evaluate the latest compute and NIC technologies to maintain our technical edge.
Infrastructure as Code: Develop and maintain automated provisioning and configuration management systems. You will ensure our sovereign stack is reproducible, scalable, and resilient.
Operational Integrity: Monitor system health and performance telemetry to identify and resolve bottlenecks. You will ensure the absolute reliability of our execution rails 24/7.
Skills Required
Systems Mastery: Expert-level knowledge of Linux (RHEL/CentOS or similar). Proficiency in kernel tuning and performance analysis tools.
Networking Precision: Deep understanding of TCP/IP, BGP, and multicast. Experience with low-latency network hardware and PTP synchronization.
Automation Fluency: Strong scripting skills (Python, Bash) and experience with IaC tools like Terraform, Ansible, or Puppet.
Hardware Depth: Familiarity with modern enterprise server architecture (Xeon/EPYC) and high-performance interconnects (Solarflare/Mellanox).
Technical Autonomy: The ability to own complex infrastructure projects from concept to production without requiring "Slouch" oversight.
