At Northrop Grumman, we are seeking a well-qualified Linux Systems Administrator to join our dynamic team of technical professionals in Linthicum, MD. This position is critical as it involves working on large, classified government contracts where you will manage Red Hat systems, including enterprise Linux servers, workstations, and applications. The selected candidate will be required to work on-site, full-time, at our Linthicum campus, as teleworking is not available for this position. As a Linux Systems Administrator, you will be responsible for maintaining the smooth operation of multi-user computer systems. This includes coordinating with network, software, and system engineers, as well as project managers and end users. You will support multiple networks and ensure that necessary administration tasks are completed efficiently. Your role will also involve analyzing customer requirements to determine equipment and software needs, recommending and implementing system enhancements, and providing backup and recovery services. In addition, you will create and maintain user and computer accounts, manage file permissions, and ensure compliance with strict Information Systems security guidelines. You will be expected to prepare security documentation for the Cyber Security team and report project status as required. This position requires a proactive approach, as you will work under minimal direction and independently determine solutions to complex problems. If you are ready to take on these challenges and contribute to our mission, we encourage you to apply today!
