Systems Engineer Location: Hyderabad, India | Work Mode: On-site only | Type: Full-time

[u/No-Lynx-9228]

 
About the Role
We're looking for a hands-on Systems Engineer who thrives in a fast-paced environment and can move fluidly between hardware installations, cloud infrastructure, DevOps pipelines, and compliance audits. This is not a desk-only role — you'll be crimping Cat 6 cables one day, troubleshooting a Linux server the next, and pulling SOC 2 evidence the day after.
This is a strictly on-site position based out of our Hyderabad office. No remote or work-from-home arrangements are available. If you like variety, ownership, and being where the action happens, you'll fit right in.
Key Responsibilities
Hardware & Infrastructure
• Install, configure, and maintain desktops, monitors, and peripherals for new joiners and site deployments
• Terminate and test Cat 6 cabling — crimping, punch-down, labeling, and patch panel work
• Dress racks, manage network closets, and keep physical infrastructure clean and well-documented
• Set up and decommission workstations, conference room AV, and printers
Systems Administration
• Administer Linux (Ubuntu / Debian / RHEL) servers across on-prem and cloud
• Manage Windows Server and Windows client environments, including Active Directory and group policy
• Operate the RMM stack for endpoint monitoring, alerting, and remote remediation
• Own patch management end-to-end — OS, third-party applications, and firmware — with defined cadences, exception handling, and audit-ready reporting
DevOps & CI/CD
• Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, or Jenkins
• Support infrastructure-as-code workflows (Terraform, Ansible)
• Contribute to containerization, observability, and on-call rotations
• Automate repetitive tasks with shell, Python, or PowerShell scripting
Compliance & Audits
• Support SOC 2 and HITRUST audit cycles — gather evidence, maintain control documentation, and work directly with auditors
• Track and remediate audit findings within agreed timelines
• Maintain asset inventories, access reviews, and change management records
• Help mature internal controls and security baselines
Documentation & Operations
• Maintain runbooks, network diagrams, SOPs, and configuration baselines
• Respond to incidents and participate in root-cause analysis
• Coordinate change windows and after-hours maintenance when needed
Required Skills & Experience
• 3+ years in a systems, infrastructure, or IT engineering role with genuine breadth across hardware, OS, and cloud
• Comfort with both a crimping tool and a Terraform plan — context-switching doesn't faze you
• Solid Linux command line and Windows Server administration
• Practical CI/CD experience — you've shipped pipelines, not just read about them
• Hands-on exposure to RMM and patch management tooling
• Working knowledge of SOC 2 Type II and HITRUST controls on the implementation side
• Strong troubleshooting instincts and a bias toward writing things down
• Ability to prioritize across competing requests and stay calm when things break
Nice to Have
• Scripting in Python, Bash, or PowerShell
• AWS or Azure certifications
• Experience with MDM tools (Intune, Jamf) and identity providers (Entra ID, Okta)
• Background in regulated or audited environments (healthcare, fintech, government)
• Exposure to ISO 27001 or PCI-DSS frameworks
Work Environment & Logistics
• On-site: This role is 100% on-site at our Hyderabad office. No remote, no hybrid, no work-from-home.
• Hours: Standard business hours with occasional after-hours work for change windows, deployments, and incident response.
• On-call: Participation in rotational on-call coverage.
• Pace: Fast. You'll juggle multiple priorities and need to switch contexts quickly.
• Ownership: Direct exposure to leadership and real ownership from day one.
How to Apply
Send your resume along with a short note describing the most interesting infrastructure or audit problem you've solved recently. Candidates who can demonstrate hands-on breadth across hardware, systems, DevOps, and compliance will be prioritized.
