    About the Position

To succeed in this role, they should be Linux Engineers at heart who have grown into several of the following areas: people management, project and programme management, large-scale coordination and communication, partnership facilitation, short- and long-term planning, and service delivery, among others.

    About You

    We are looking to hire a Linux Engineer Manager with a strong technical background and solid leadership experience. Candidates are expected to lead by example, prioritising their individual technical work and their leadership responsibilities accordingly. They should have a willingness to learn OCaml, our language of choice, and meet the following requirements:

    • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or other technical discipline (or equivalent experience)
    • Clear and concise communication skills, from one-on-one meetings to larger group discussions, and the ability to efficiently analyse and deconstruct problems
    • Successful track record supporting individuals and helping teams thrive
    • Experience building and growing firm-wide partnerships
    • Strong analytical and troubleshooting skills at various levels (technical, process, people, etc.)
    • Deep knowledge of operating system fundamentals, especially Linux
    • Fluency with the Unix command line and shell scripting
    • Practical experience with modern Linux systems and systems programming concepts
    • Basic understanding of network protocols
    • Programming experience in any language
