Job description

Systems Administrator, Bulk Data Transport Operations

Make an Impact Where It Matters Most

At Intelliforce, we support mission infrastructure that has to be available, reliable, and ready around the clock. In this role, you will join the Bulk Data Transport Team supporting the FASTCONDUIT contract, which delivers enterprise‑scale corporate data transport and messaging services that are critical to national security. You will help develop, deploy, and support worldwide high‑performance bulk data transport services for the IC and enterprise partners. This is a strong fit for someone who enjoys Linux, operational support, and keeping high‑availability systems moving.

What Makes This Opportunity Stand Out

This role gives you the chance to work on infrastructure with real reach and real consequence. You will support services used across a worldwide enterprise environment, with work spanning Linux administration, application support, and data flow operations. The team covers core business‑day operations plus after‑hours support, so the work stays close to live systems and real mission needs. It is a strong fit for someone who likes hands‑on system ownership, practical troubleshooting, and supporting services that cannot afford to go down.

At Intelliforce, your work is visible and your contribution matters. Because we support prime programs, our teams stay close to meaningful mission work with real momentum. Because we are a small business, leadership is accessible, communication is direct, and strong technical ownership gets noticed. Add in long‑term stability, strong benefits, and a people‑first culture, and this becomes more than another sysadmin role. It is a chance to support enterprise transport services that mission users depend on every day.

Here’s What Your Day-to-Day Could Include

• Support worldwide enterprise‑scale bulk data transport and messaging services
• Perform Linux command line system administration in a mission‑focused environment
• Support application administration and data flow administration across operational services
• Help develop, deploy, and sustain high‑performance bulk data transport capabilities
• Troubleshoot system and service issues during core coverage hours and on‑call rotations
• Work with teammates to maintain availability, reliability, and fault tolerance across the platform
• Contribute to operational support for IC and enterprise mission partners

Minimum Qualifications

• Clearance: Top Secret Clearance with Polygraph, must be active. We do not have the ability to sponsor clearances
• Citizenship: Must be a U.S. Citizen. We cannot sponsor visas
• 5 years of Systems Administration experience
• Basic to strong Linux skills
• Bachelor’s degree is not required based on the information provided
• Required Certification: IAT Level 1
• On‑call support is required

Required Skills
