• System Maintenance: Perform core system administration tasks, including the setup of hardware configurations (e.g., RAID drives and partition schemes for RHEL servers) and managing proprietary software integration, including modification of driver packages for RHEL kernel compilation.
• Documentation: Author high-quality, comprehensive technical documentation for all custom software, scripts, and installation/maintenance procedures to facilitate knowledge transfer and user understanding.
• Software Deployment: Develop and manage procedures for secure software package distribution, including downloading Red Hat RPMs and transferring them for installation on remote or air-gapped systems.
