You Are
You bring extensive experience operating mission-critical infrastructure services in complex, large-scale environments. Your expertise spans LDAP directory services, DNS, SMTP, DHCP, and Unix-based systems, and you have consistently delivered high availability across distributed architectures.
You approach infrastructure with a focus on automation, observability, and operational excellence. You design solutions that account for failure modes and long-term maintainability. Your technical leadership extends to incident management, root cause analysis, and cross-functional collaboration with Engineering, Security, and Cloud teams.
At Synopsys, you will own the infrastructure services that underpin daily operations for 30,000 employees globally.
What You'll Be Doing
- Own the reliability, availability, and operational health of LDAP, SMTP, DNS, DHCP, and other Unix-based infrastructure services.
- Manage day-to-day operations, incident response, troubleshooting, performance tuning, and capacity planning.
- Lead infrastructure projects, including solution design, deployment, upgrades, and service modernization.
- Drive automation through scripting and configuration management to improve efficiency and scalability.
- Design and maintain highly available, secure, and resilient infrastructure across on-premises, cloud, and hybrid environments.
- Implement monitoring, alerting, and observability practices to improve service reliability and operational visibility.
- Partner with cross-functional teams on enterprise initiatives and provide technical leadership for infrastructure services.
- Develop operational standards, documentation, and best practices.
The Impact You Will Have
- Directly improve uptime and reliability for directory services, email, DNS, and network services that support engineering workflows across Synopsys globally
- Reduce incident frequency and mean time to recovery by identifying root causes, implementing fixes, and automating responses to known failure patterns
- Accelerate infrastructure delivery timelines by replacing manual processes with repeatable, version-controlled automation
- Increase operational visibility by building monitoring and alerting that catches problems before users notice
- Enable secure, scalable infrastructure growth by designing solutions that work across on-premises data centers, Azure, AWS, and Google Cloud Platform
- Raise the technical bar for the team by mentoring engineers, sharing knowledge, and setting standards for how infrastructure services should be built and operated
- Free up team capacity by eliminating repetitive manual work, allowing engineers to focus on higher-value projects and service improvements
What You'll Need
- 8+ years of hands-on experience in site reliability, infrastructure engineering, or Unix/Linux systems administration, with a track record of owning production services at scale
- Strong working knowledge of LDAP directory services such as Oracle Unified Directory, OpenLDAP, 389DS, or Red Hat Directory Server, including architecture, replication, and troubleshooting
- Strong working knowledge of Postfix SMTP including architecture and troubleshooting.
- Strong working knowledge of DNS technologies like BIND, Unbound, Anycast, DHCP services in production environments including architecture and troubleshooting. Knowledge of Infoblox or similar IPAM solutions is a plus
- Proven ability to automate infrastructure using Ansible, shell scripting (Bash, Korn Shell), and cron-based job scheduling
- Experience designing and implementing monitoring, alerting, and observability solutions that provide actionable insights into service health
- Hands-on experience with cloud platforms including Azure, AWS, or Google Cloud Platform, and the ability to operate infrastructure across hybrid environments
- Strong incident management skills, including troubleshooting complex distributed systems, performing root cause analysis, and leading post-incident reviews
Who You Are
- You demonstrate strong leadership during critical incidents, rapidly assessing system failures, coordinating response efforts, and driving resolution while maintaining clear communication with stakeholders
- You develop automation and infrastructure code with maintainability in mind, ensuring documentation and implementation clarity that enables team members to support and extend your work
- You communicate complex technical concepts effectively across organizational levels, translating infrastructure challenges into clear business context for leadership and detailed guidance for engineering teams
- You take a systematic approach to problem resolution, investigating underlying causes rather than addressing symptoms, and implementing preventive measures to improve long-term system stability
The Team You'll Be Part Of
You’ll join a collaborative engineering team responsible for delivering reliable, secure, and scalable enterprise infrastructure services. You’ll work alongside experienced engineers and cross-functional teams to improve service reliability, expand automation and observability, modernize infrastructure, and solve complex technical challenges. Our culture emphasizes technical ownership, collaboration, knowledge sharing, and continuous improvement.
