We’re looking for an IT systems specialist who knows how to keep things running and knows when to burn it down and rebuild it better. At Aviture, we build complex, high-impact software—government, commercial, you name it—and we need someone who can keep our internal infrastructure humming while supporting the engineers building the future.
This is a hybrid role: part systems admin, part DevOps wingman, part digital firefighter. You’ll support a team of 75+ at our Omaha HQ and an expanding group of remote employees. You’ll be working across networks, servers, cloud platforms, dev environments, and whatever else breaks on a Tuesday. If you're the kind of person who takes pride in things working because you made them work, read on.
What You’ll Actually Be Doing:
- Keeping our cloud and on-prem networks up and running (AWS, Azure, GCP—we play all the hits).
- Administering Linux and Windows servers, plus VMs and dev environments that occasionally behave like wild animals.
- Managing security across firewalls, VPNs, and endpoints—because we like sleeping at night.
- Owning backup and disaster recovery so we can recover from worst-case scenarios without panic.
- Partnering with dev teams to support CI/CD, pipelines, and tooling. If you’ve ever yelled at a Jenkins job, you’ll fit in.
- Handling user accounts, permissions, and access like a benevolent gatekeeper.
- Providing practical, real-world support—whether it’s fixing a bricked laptop or figuring out why Wi-Fi dies in one oddly cursed corner of the office.
- Documenting systems and configs so you’re not the only one who knows what that Bash script actually does.
- Continuously looking for ways to improve performance, security, and sanity.
What You Bring:
- A degree in Computer Science, IT, MIS—or equivalent time spent in the school of hard knocks.
- 3+ years in a sysadmin, IT generalist, or network role where you weren’t just “clicking next.”
- Comfortable in Linux and Windows ecosystems (bonus points if you’ve cursed at both).
- Hands-on experience with AWS, Azure, or GCP—and not just from the billing dashboard.
- Solid networking knowledge: VPNs, routing, firewall rules, the works.
- Experience with virtualization platforms like VMware or Hyper-V.
- The ability to communicate clearly with both engineers and folks who think “the cloud” is a weather pattern.
- A get-it-done mindset. If it’s broken, you fix it. If it’s slow, you tune it. If it’s unnecessary, you kill it
Bonus Points If You:
- Know your way around Bash, PowerShell, or Python.
- Can write (and maybe even trust) Terraform or Ansible.
- Have played in DevOps land: Docker, GitLab CI/CD, Jenkins, etc.
- Hold a certification or two (Network+, Security+, etc.), but we care more about what you know than what’s on paper.
- PPO or a High Deductible Health Plan, HSA eligible plan, Dental, Vision, and Supplemental Life.
- Generous paid time off that starts accruing on day one.
- Company vacations!!! Previous destinations have included Napa Valley, Cancun, Cabo San Lucas and Aspen.
- Matching 401k with 100% vesting in six months.
- Pick your preferred workstation! Mac? PC? We’ll support you with the tech you need to do your best work.
- Flexible work schedules: Work the times that fits your schedule, with all meetings required to be scheduled between 9 am and 3 pm CST.
- Free lunch every Friday and recurring team events for you and your family to enjoy.
- Incentive and bonus pay.
- Opportunities for connection and growth through peer coaching, recurring Lightning Talks to share things we’re passionate about, and a bi-weekly company-wide All Hands.
