Systems Administrator with Security Clearance

10+ years of IT experience, including Windows and Linux Network
Administration experience + a BS (or 15+ years of experience without adegree) SAS requires a CITE Facility Administrator to execute spanning five key disciplines: Network Management
Network Design/Architecture
Network Systems Engineering
Network Installation/Maintenance
Information Systems Security Engineering
SAS requires experienced Network Managers/Administrators with Radio Frequency systems and components familiarity who are capable of reliably executing the following responsibilities: Consult and coordinate with external organizations to resolve network, system, server, or other development and test infrastructure issues Identify and select IT products, tools, services, and infrastructure components for development systems Strategize/design/select architectures and procedures required to solve complex infrastructure problems Develop/contribute to/evaluate technical proposals for changes to CITE facility networks Install and customize as necessary HW and/or SW components into development and test infrastructure computer systems and networks Maintain computer system and network HW or SW, including UPS network Manage, monitor, and control networks Troubleshoot networks, computers, and peripheral devices to isolate causes of failures/issues Conduct site surveys for IT installations Validate testing and quality assurance of development and test
infrastructure systems Analyze infrastructure problems to determine technical solutions Identify new and existing products, technologies, and/or architectures to solve design, development, and test problems Position Specific Requirements Perform high-level design, specifying system and component performance and interface requirements Translate conceptual designs into technical specifications Install, test, troubleshoot, repair, maintain, configure, and improve development and test infrastructure equipment Perform all life cycle support: HW, SW, firmware, and configuration upgrades or modifications to currently installed development and test infrastructure equipment Effect repair and modification of HW components to include micro-soldering to replace components, repair traces to keep systems/devices in operating condition, and facilitate reverse engineering efforts The specialized skills required for this highly complex role include: Understanding the architecture/topology of SW/HW/networks, including WANs/CANs/LANs, telecommunication systems, their components, and associated protocols and standards Configuring, managing, and sustaining development and testing network infrastructure and computer systems Comprehension of the theory, design, and implementation of network architectures Applying concepts, principles, theories, and methods for designing, development, evaluating, testing, and securing development and testing infrastructure networks Monitoring and maintaining applications within an IT environment Expertise in the concepts, principles, theories, and methods for network connectivity (e.g. routing, switching, and IP addressing) Maintaining awareness of new, emerging, and evolving technology, tools, and trends applicable to mobile/RF development and testing infrastructure networks requirements Knowledge of the concepts, principles, and theories of telecommunications, including their components and associated protocols and standards, and how they integrate with one another (e.g.
transmissions, switching, routing management) Experience in the design, implementation, and operation of telecommunications systems Familiarity with the specifications, uses, and types of security hardware
and software options Understanding of the concepts and principles of computer security Using the principles and key elements of Configuration Management to plan, manage, or document the implementation, modification, or integration of systems Implementing, configuring, and sustaining computer/network security solutions (e.g. encryption, firewalls, anti-virus rule sets, and intrusion detection/prevention systems) Planning, coordinating, and administering the installation, testing, operating, troubleshooting, and maintenance of hardware and software systems Maintaining systems inventory, non-attributable systems matrix, and rack/elevation/room drawings
Implementing safety protocols
