Job details
A growing aerospace-focused organization is hiring a full-time Application & Middleware IT Administrator in Denton, TX, with a hybrid schedule (3 days onsite). This role centers on OpenShift and Kubernetes application administration within a complex enterprise environment, alongside strong Red Hat Linux systems and middleware technologies such as Apache, Tomcat, and JBoss. The position supports both on-prem and AWS-hosted applications critical to engineering and manufacturing operations.
This is an opportunity to step into a highly collaborative, globally connected environment where you’ll act as a key bridge between application and infrastructure teams across the US and Europe. The team is specifically targeting engineers who understand how to run and support applications in containerized environments rather than build the underlying infrastructure. If you enjoy troubleshooting production issues, improving application reliability, and working hands-on with modern container platforms while still leveraging traditional middleware and Linux expertise, this role offers strong long-term growth and exposure to enterprise-scale systems.
Required Skills & Experience
- OpenShift and Kubernetes experience focused on application administration such as managing pods, deployments, and troubleshooting
- Strong experience with Red Hat or Linux systems administration
- Experience deploying, supporting, and maintaining enterprise middleware like Apache, Tomcat, or JBoss/WildFly
- Background supporting production applications and working within ticketing or incident management systems
- Strong communication skills with the ability to collaborate across distributed global teams
- At least 5 years of experience supporting enterprise applications in IT environments
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, IT, Engineering, or similar field
Desired Skills & Experience
- Experience working with AWS environments such as ROSA or cloud-hosted applications
- Familiarity with Windows Server environments
- Basic understanding of SQL Server or other database systems
- Foundational networking knowledge including protocols and connectivity concepts
- Experience creating automation scripts using PowerShell or similar tools
- Exposure to CI/CD pipelines or automation tools for application deployment
- Understanding of manufacturing or engineering application environments
