1. Engineer Linux/DevOps
Within a company, the Linux system engineer plays an essential role in ensuring the proper functioning of a Linux system. His missions are multiple and are generally articulated around two axes. Firstly, he is in charge of project or "build" activities, i.e. everything that concerns technology watch, consulting, expertise and innovation. In particular, he/she must take charge of the implementation of new solutions under this operating system using the latest DevOps technologies. In addition, he/she must ensure an active technological watch to know all the evolutions of Linux and guarantee the optimization of system resources. Secondly, this professional is also responsible for intervening in production activities, which is called the "run".
What is the run? It is the maintenance of the operating system, the administration and the maintenance in operational condition of the system. The engineer must therefore ensure that the entire system is functional and usable.
