Job Description
The Job:
You will support and maintain the HR Systems platform from an infrastructure and operations perspective. This is NOT an SAP HR Functional / SuccessFactors Config role. You will not be configuring payroll or HR workflows. You will be the technical owner who keeps the HR system secure, available, and compliant.
The Role:
. Manage and maintain mission-critical Windows Server and Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) servers supporting HR Systems in on-premise / hybrid environments, ensuring high availability and security compliance.
. Deploy monthly WSUS updates and patch COTS / open-source software to address security vulnerabilities and maintain operational readiness.
. Lead server OS upgrade initiatives to improve infrastructure stability and extend system lifecycle.
. Troubleshoot and resolve server, database, and network-related issues using SQL and networking fundamentals.
. Develop PowerShell and Python automation scripts to reduce manual operational workload and improve deployment efficiency.
. Monitor system health, manage system logs, and coordinate with HR system vendors / SAP support teams for incident resolution.
. Support user access reviews, audit evidence collection, and compliance reporting for HR Systems.
. Collaborate with cross-functional teams, HR stakeholders, and IT security to support customer requirements and optimise system performance.
. Maintain system documentation, runbooks, and SOPs for HR Systems operations.
The Requirements:
. Degree in Engineering, Computer Science, IT, or related field.
. 2-4 years experience as Systems Engineer / Infrastructure Engineer / IT Ops Engineer.
. Came from a mission-critical infrastructure background - not from SAP HR.
. Strong hands-on experience in Windows Server and Linux (RHEL) administration.
. Experience in system patching (WSUS), security vulnerability remediation, and server hardening.
. Working knowledge of SQL for troubleshooting and data checks.
. Good understanding of server, database, and network troubleshooting.
. Ability to work in a high-compliance environment handling sensitive data.
. Able to secure security clearance (required due to project sensitivity).
Good to Have:
. Experience with Cloud Platforms: AWS / Azure.
. Experience supporting enterprise applications / HR Systems / SAP from an infrastructure perspective (although an advantage: functional SAP HR knowledge is NOT required - you will be trained on the HR application).
. Experience with HTML / CSS for front-end enhancements / troubleshooting.
. Hands-on scripting in PowerShell and Python for automation.
. Experience in mission-critical, defence, government, or GLC environments.
