Job Description

You'll keep servers, networks and cloud services up and secure for a financial services company in Atlantis. Expect to be trusted with real work from your first week.

  • Troubleshoot load-shedding related outages and UPS failures
  • Configure switches, VLANs, VPNs and firewall rules
  • Monitor servers, links and firewalls and act on alerts
  • Run and test backups, and do regular restore drills
  • Plan hardware refreshes and licence renewals with a budget

What you need

  • Solid TCP/IP, routing, switching and firewall knowledge
  • Clear change management and documentation habits
  • At least 3 years in systems, network or cloud administration
  • Degree or diploma in IT, plus relevant certifications
  • Willing to do standby and after-hours maintenance
  • Strong Windows Server, Active Directory and Microsoft 365 skills, or Linux for Linux posts

What you get

  • Medical aid and provident fund
