About the company
Our client is a biotechnology company.
The role
Raydar is recruiting for this role on behalf of our client. Design, build and protect the technical foundation for a hands-on operating environment that blends on-premises hardware with a cloud presence. The work combines automation, network architecture and security practice. You will be based on-site part of the week alongside real physical equipment.
What you'll do
- Architect and grow local networking, compute and storage capacity that handles very large data volumes.
- Build a custom network from scratch using automation and pipeline tooling, then pass routine operation to a support team through documented procedures.
- Lead security work such as firewall configuration, safeguarding connected machinery, adversarial testing of web systems and responding to incidents.
- Set up and operate secure cloud environments and link them to on-premises sites.
- Support the rollout of additional facilities as the business grows.
Requirements
What we're looking for
- Around 7 or more years in infrastructure, systems or security roles, including some on-premises exposure.
- A career spent mostly in fast-moving startups, ideally owning a function as its first hire.
- Solid AWS expertise and automation skills with Terraform, Ansible and CI/CD, plus scripting in Python and Bash.
- Strong grasp of network fundamentals and hands-on experience designing networks rather than only configuring vendor consoles.
- Practical security background covering testing, risk assessment and handling security events.
- Willingness to work in the office three set days each week.
Bonus points
- Prior support of on-site infrastructure tied to physical, equipment-heavy operations.
- Familiarity with open-source or MikroTik-style routing and firewall platforms.
