IT Operations Engineer

About OLIX

AI is growing faster than any technology in history and the explosion in demand has created a massive infrastructure gap; we can no longer build chips or power stations fast enough to keep up. The industry is still leaning on a ten-year-old hardware blueprint that has reached its limit. A new paradigm that is faster and more efficient will be the biggest economic opportunity of the next century and create the most important company of the next decade. The OLIX Decode Accelerator 1 (DX-1) is the first accelerator architected specifically for decode. Rack-scale co-design of logic, data movement, packaging, optics and interconnect enables a step change in system level performance.

The Role

We're searching for an IT Ops Engineer to be the welcoming first point of contact for everything IT, in a busy & mixed-platform environment.

This role is an exciting opportunity to join a collaborative team and gain hands-on experience with networking, infrastructure, and cutting-edge DevOps practices.

• Firewall & security: monitoring rulesets, triaging alerts, helping craft least-privilege policies, applying firmware updates
• Core services: administering DNS, DHCP, print, file shares and cloud storage; tracking SSL/TLS certificate renewals and software licences
• Office infrastructure: AV/meeting-room kit, VoIP handsets, printers, UPS checks
• Knowledge management: writing concise "how-to" guides and post-incident reviews for the internal wiki
• Drive IT process improvements: refine workflows and suggest innovative solutions to enhance IT operations
