Platform/Linux Engineer
About the client
The client operates within the defense industry and develops advanced systems where operational reliability and robust architecture are central. The platform team plays a vital role because their Linux-based platform forms the foundation for the entire development organization and enables the application teams to deliver stable and secure functionality.
Here, you will work in a technically complex environment where the system is large, interconnected, and requires curiosity and a desire to understand the whole. Collaboration is a natural part of the culture, and the platform team has close contact with application developers, integrators, and other specialist functions. This creates both variety in everyday work and good opportunities to learn a lot about all parts of the system.
About the position
The team is responsible for a Linux-based platform that forms the basis for all application teams, and the role involves ensuring that the underlying Linux environment functions stably, securely, and efficiently.
The work includes the development of tools, scripts, and functions that strengthen the platform's stability and usability. Development takes place close to the operating system and the container environment, primarily in Python and Go, and sometimes in Bash or Perl. The platform provides core functions such as runtime-image, installation, startup, log management, patching, and upgrades.
The role is a combination of software development and system administration. You will work broadly – from Linux optimization and container technology to troubleshooting, improvements, and infrastructure-related tasks. The work is team-based, and the team strives to spread competence and support each other in both planned and unplanned work.
Currently, the focus is on bug fixing and improving the existing platform, where the workday may include rapid requests coming in from the side. Requests are handled through assessment, prioritization, and planning in the backlog by product owners and scrum master.
