Systems Administrator

Mirai is an Italian maritime-robotics company building autonomous surface vessels and the software platform that operates them — from our lab to the sea, from the cloud to networks we don't control. We are seeking a hands-on Systems Administrator to join a small, senior team. Your ground spans three worlds: the lab — our on-premise environment for development, integration and rehearsal, with the servers, networks, test benches and clusters where systems are proven before they touch the water; the public-facing and shared services the company and its partners rely on every day; and deployments with public-sector customers, in institutional and government environments — including disconnected ones — where procedure, patience and documentation matter as much as skill. Your work will be visible end to end, from the lab bench to vessels at sea. Key Responsibilities

Lab & On-Premise Infrastructure

Run our on-premise lab environment for development, integration and rehearsal: servers, networks, test benches and the clusters where systems are proven before they touch the water. Administer Linux hosts end to end (Debian/Ubuntu family): networking, VLAN segregation, storage, systemd, containerd/Docker. Platform & Cloud Operations

Operate our Kubernetes-based runtime across development, AWS (EC2/EKS) and on-prem deployments. Develop DevOps, MLOps and big-data ETL jobs. Develop SDN procedures spanning from VPC environments (AWS) to complex VPN and IP routing control and data planes. Shared Services

Keep the services the company and its partners rely on every day simply up: identity and access, DNS, VPN, mail, backups, monitoring and the exposed endpoints. Field Deployments & Robotics

Prepare and execute field deployments and commissioning with public-sector customers — including disconnected environments — keeping audit-grade records of every apply. Join sea trials and operational exercises — travel to ports, labs and customer sites, mostly in Puglia/Italy. Contribute to NVIDIA and ROS 2 based robotics applications at the container, Linux and external CU level, including sensors and actuators configuration. Qualifications

Required

Domicile in Puglia — hard requirement: the role includes on-site presence in the lab and occasional travel to ports and customer sites. Solid Linux administration and networking fundamentals. Comfort with containerized systems and automation. A bias for simple, documented, repeatable solutions — our standard is tools (and people) that don't improvise at 2 a.m. on a pier. Working English; Italian for institutional contexts. Preferred

Experience with regulated or public-administration environments. Experience with NVIDIA Jetson-class edge devices. What we offer

Competitive salary (€30,000–40,000 gross annual salary, depending on seniority). Work with frontier AI models and processes. A small team of top-notch engineers where your work is visible end to end — lab bench to vessels at sea — and where decisions are written down, not tribal. If you want to run infrastructure that reaches from a lab bench in Puglia to autonomous vessels at sea, Mirai is where you do it.
