Job description

Overview

Help us improve Alberta’s digital future

Are you a Linux expert who wants your work to mean more than just "uptime"? At Cybera, we don’t just manage servers, we build the digital backbone for Alberta’s researchers, educators, and innovators. We’re looking for a purpose-driven Systems Administrator to help us manage a unique hybrid environment, ranging from bare-metal OpenStack clusters to advanced public cloud integrations.

What You’ll Do

  • Engineer R&E platforms : Take a hands-on role in deploying and managing the systems that underpin Alberta’s research and education community, including public clouds, regional security tools, and collaborative data environments.
  • End-to-end infrastructure : Manage the full hardware-to-software lifecycle, from physical hardware maintenance to scaling environments via Infrastructure as Code (IaC).
  • Modernize operations : Collaborate on best practices for Kubernetes, Prometheus monitoring, and automated configuration management (Ansible / Puppet).
  • Support the community : Provide technical "Tier 3" style support for our member organizations in the public and education sectors, helping them integrate their systems with our public cloud and logging tools.

Your Technical Toolkit

  • The essentials : Solid Linux knowledge (you know your way around the kernel and shell), comfort with virtualization / containers, and a "tinkerer" mindset for hardware troubleshooting.
  • System observability : A strong grasp of monitoring and alerting philosophy. You understand how to gain visibility into complex systems using metrics, logs, and traces (using tools like Prometheus, Grafana, and Zabbix).
  • Hybrid & multi-cloud infrastructure : Experience with managing diverse compute environments. You are comfortable navigating the nuances of private cloud orchestration (OpenStack) alongside public cloud providers (AWS, Azure, or GCP).
  • Data telemetry & log management : An interest in building robust pipelines for system data. You understand how to ingest, transform, and route high-volume logs and event streams (leveraging technologies like Vector, FluentD, or Kafka).
  • Compensation and Location

    This position is based in our Calgary office. Salary will be commensurate with experience. No relocation costs will be awarded.

    Benefits of working at Cybera

    This is your opportunity to work for a flexible, tech-forward not-for-profit that is helping Canada become a more equitable place to work, learn, and play!

    We offer :

  • A hybrid working environment, with flexible hours.
  • Highly supportive and inclusive work culture.
  • 35 hour work weeks, except in July and August where we work 32 hour work weeks and have every Friday off.
  • Benefits

  • Health & Vision benefits from day 1
  • Long & Short term disability benefits from day 1
  • Flexible Health Spending Account (after successful probation)
  • Annual professional development funds
  • Regular Lunch & Learns covering department updates to EDI topics
  • RRSP program (after successful probation)
  • Healthy snacks in the office – and sometimes unhealthy snacks
  • 10 days per year to use for sick time or mental health breaks
  • The opportunity to invest in yourself and your career
  • How to Apply

    This posting will remain open until a suitable candidate is found. Your application should include a resume and a short response (in your own words) to two application questions listed below. Your answers should demonstrate how your skillset matches the position requirements (of course we don\'t expect you to have them all!) While we appreciate all applications, only candidates selected for an interview will be contacted. No phone calls or recruiter assistance at this time, please.

    All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, religious beliefs, colour, gender, disability, age, ancestry, place of origin, marital status, source of income or family status of that person or of any other person.
