  • Provide advanced L3 support for mission-critical media, cloud, automation, storage, and enterprise systems; coordinate escalations with L3 engineering, vendors, and platform owners.
  • Troubleshoot complex service, integration, permissions, networking, storage, and performance issues across Linux/Unix, macOS, and Windows environments.
  • Support MAM/PAM and newsroom/media systems, including Avid Interplay, Fonn Mimir, and Avid MediaCentral UX.
  • Build and maintain repeatable automation for provisioning, configuration, patching, software deployment, monitoring, and operational workflows.
  • Develop and troubleshoot scripts, integrations, and infrastructure configurations using Python, YAML, JSON, XML, PHP, Terraform, and Ansible.
  • Partner with cloud, security, storage, networking, application, and production teams to design resilient solutions for media workflows.
  • Participate in incident response, root-cause analysis, change management, and technical documentation; identify and implement preventive improvements.
  • Create clear runbooks and communicate technical status, risk, impact, and next steps to technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Provide onsite weekend and off-hours coverage for planned maintenance and time-sensitive production needs.

  • 3+ years of experience in systems engineering, DevOps, platform support, media technology, or advanced technical support.

  • Strong systems administration and troubleshooting skills across Linux/Unix, macOS, and Windows.
  • Hands-on automation and configuration-management experience with Terraform, Ansible, Jamf, Munki, and Chocolatey.
  • In-depth knowledge of cloud architecture and solutioning, including AWS, S3 storage classes and lifecycle strategy, cloud/hybrid storage, IAM, networking, observability, Amazon Bedrock, and AWS Elemental MediaConvert.
  • Experience supporting MAM/PAM or media workflow platforms; familiarity with Avid Interplay, Fonn Mimir, and Avid MediaCentral UX strongly preferred.
  • Strong communication skills and a collaborative mindset; able to prioritize competing needs and work calmly during high-impact incidents.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
