About This Role

Job Overview

This Systems Administrator role is about keeping the digital lights on and the data flowing. You'll handle the core infrastructure that a business relies on every day, solving problems before most people even know they exist. The position is based in Long Beach, CA, supporting local operations and remote teams.

Duties & Responsibilities

  • Manage and monitor servers, both on premises and in cloud environments like AWS or Azure.
  • Automate routine tasks and deployments using scripting tools such as PowerShell or Python.
  • Respond to and resolve help desk escalations for complex system issues.
  • Oversee network performance, security updates, and backup integrity.
  • Document system configurations and changes for the IT knowledge base.

  • An associate's degree in a related field or equivalent practical experience counts here. Relevant certifications are a plus.
  • The job involves occasional after hours work for maintenance and requires you to stay focused during critical outages.

What It's Like In This Role

You're part of a small tech team where everyone wears multiple hats. One day you're deploying a new server cluster, the next you're troubleshooting a weird printer driver issue for accounting.

The workload has its steady rhythms punctuated by urgent firefights; it's never boring.
