As we continue to grow our brand, we are looking for an in-house Senior IT Administrator ‑ VICIdial Platform (SITA) to join our team.

The SITA will report to the Business-Technology Manager. It's a perfect job for a systems engineer who loves “closing tickets” and writing the script that prevents them from ever reopening. You’ll keep 100+ agents online, automate routine dialer chores, and harden the underlying Linux infrastructure.

ABOUT YOU

  • Import lead files, execute DNC scrubs, adjust campaigns via VICIdial GUI & CLI
  • Maintain Linux servers (Ubuntu/CentOS), apply patches, manage SSL certificates
  • Perform nightly MySQL dumps; run quarterly restore drills

DevOps & Automation

  • Configure Netdata/Grafana alerts; fine‑tune thresholds to reduce false positives
  • Manage network switches (VLAN, QoS), firewalls, and PoE phones in the call floor
  • Write lightweight Python utilities to parse carrier CDRs and feed dashboards

Security & Compliance

  • Enforce least‑privilege access via SSH key rotation and vault management
  • Track asset inventory, warranty status, and RMA process
  • Collaborate with the Manager on root‑cause analyses and preventive controls

MUST-HAVE QUALIFICATIONS

  • 3–5 yrs Linux sysadmin or DevOps in a VoIP or high‑uptime environment
  • Working knowledge of VICIdial/Asterisk or comparable dialer platform
  • Comfort with MySQL basics, shell scripting, and network troubleshooting (TCP/UDP, SIP, RTP)
  • Exposure to container tech (Docker) and Git workflow
  • RHCSA, or similar certification
  • Willingness to be on call 24/7

Please note: This position is on-site in our Santa Ana office and not a work-remote position.

  • $95,000-$110,000 annual salary (dependent on experience)
  • Advancement opportunities
  • 401(k)
