IT Senior Architect - Linux & Open-Source

Role Overview

We are looking for an experienced IT Architect – Linux & Open Source Infrastructure to design, evolve and govern our Linux server landscape and the broader open-source technology stack that underpins our business-critical applications. You will own the technical architecture end-to-end - from on-premises data centers to hybrid and cloud environments - and act as the technical authority for standards, security and scalability across the platform.

Beyond the OS layer, you will shape our open-source technology strategy: which tools and platforms we standardize on, how we evaluate open source vs. proprietary/commercial options and how we manage the licensing, support and community engagement that come with running open source at enterprise scale.
