Excellent research needs state-of-the-art IT infrastructure and innovative digital services.

With a team of about 50 experts, we will redesign the institute's digital landscape over the next few years and implement an ambitious digital transformation programme to facilitate the Institute's rapid growth.

Your responsibilities include:

• Administration, maintenance, and optimisation of our Linux server and client environment
• User and Group rights management
• Monitoring, troubleshooting, and performance optimisation of Linux systems
• Planning and implementation of upgrades, patches and system enhancements
• Support in the digital transformation of the Institute, including integration with new cloud services (Entra ID, M365, hybrid solutions)
• Collaboration with IT colleagues in network, security and Windows administration
• Documentation of the system architecture, configurations, processes and procedures
• 2nd and 3rd level support for technical issues in the Linux environment
