Summary

An in-house IT engineer maintains the on-premise network and server infrastructure of a cake manufacturer: managing OPNsense firewalls, LAN/WAN equipment, and Windows/Linux servers, while providing Level 1-2 support to office staff and production-floor operators.

RESPONSIBILITIES:

Network Security & Firewall Management

  • Deploy, configure, and maintain enterprise firewalls to secure the corporate and manufacturing networks.

  • Manage and administer OPNsense firewall solutions, including rule creation, traffic shaping, intrusion detection/prevention (IDS/IPS), and secure VPN tunnel setups.

  • Continuously monitor network traffic for anomalies, ensuring strict adherence to network security best practices.

Infrastructure & Server Operations

  • Manage LAN/WAN network equipment, including routers, managed switches, and wireless access points.

  • Manage day-to-day server operations (Windows/Linux environments), including Active Directory, DNS, DHCP, and group policies.

  • Monitor network performance and server health to ensure maximum uptime for both administrative systems and production line equipment.

  • Perform routine system backups, firmware updates, and disaster recovery testing.

IT Support

  • Provide timely Level 1 and Level 2 IT support for hardware, software, and network issues for both office staff and manufacturing floor operators.

  • Troubleshoot and resolve connectivity issues for industrial devices, scanners, and workstations on the production floor.

  • Maintain accurate documentation of network configurations, firewall policies, IT assets, and standard operating procedures (SOPs).

Cloud Infrastructure (Advantage)

  • Assist in evaluating, designing, and maintaining cloud-based workloads and integrations.

  • Note: While daily operations are heavily on-premise, your input and design experience will be highly valued as we modernize and scale our infrastructure.



REQUIREMENTS:

  • Bachelor’s Degree or Diploma in Computer Science, Information Technology, or a related technical field.

  • 1 to 2 years of proven, hands-on experience in IT Support, Network Infrastructure, and Server Operations.

  • Previous experience working in a manufacturing or production environment is highly preferred.


  • Technical Skills:

    • Required: Hands-on experience with firewall setup and network security management, specifically utilizing OPNsense.

    • Solid understanding of networking protocols (TCP/IP, VLANs, VPNs, routing protocols).

    • Experience managing Windows Server environments and virtualization technologies.

    • Strong troubleshooting skills with hardware (PCs, printers, factory floor devices) and software.


  • Soft Skills: Ability to work well under pressure, prioritize tasks to minimize production downtime, and communicate technical issues clearly to non-technical staff.

  • Experience or foundational knowledge in Cloud Infrastructure setup and design (AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, or related platforms) will be an added advantage

  • Relevant industry certifications (e.g., Security+/Network+, OPNsense/pfSense certifications) will be an added advantage
