One team. Global challenges. Infinite opportunities. At Viasat, we're on a mission to deliver connections with the capacity to change the world. For more than 35 years, Viasat has helped shape how consumers, businesses, governments and militaries around the globe communicate. We're looking for people who think big, act fearlessly, and create an inclusive environment that drives positive impact to join our team.

As a member of our Global Infrastructure Shared Services team, you will contribute to the design, architecture, and end-to-end deployment of applications primarily hosted on Linux. Your responsibilities will encompass a wide range of tasks such as automating deployment, solving issues, and developing deployment frameworks and pipelines for CI/CD managed systems.

Your day-to-day will also include deploying and supporting global deployments of fundamental data center services like standardized system images, Red Hat Satellite 6, SMTP, NTP, Consul, and Syslog. You will develop and maintain a number of internal tools using Python, Ruby, Ansible, and Bash that automate our monitoring, pipelines, and processes. The products you will work on will merge traditional Linux System Administration skills with modern cloud methodologies, giving you tremendous insight into how networked computer systems work at a fundamental level. Your abilities will expand beyond the application layer you learned in school, giving you a deep understanding of why systems perform poorly or are insecure. As a point of contact, your exemplary customer service skills will help support lab environments as well as our global datacenters.
