What are the responsibilities and job description for the System Engineer position at Spencer Ogden?
π Systems Deployment Engineer (Linux / OT Infrastructure)
π Alpharetta, GA (Hybrid) | π Remote Option for Bilingual Spanish Speakers | U.S. Travel Required
Weβre partnering with a leading innovator in energy storage and renewable technology to hire a Systems Deployment Engineer supporting cutting-edge infrastructure across utility-scale energy projects.
This role sits at the intersection of IT and Operational Technology (OT) β focused on deploying, configuring, and supporting the systems that power real-world energy environments.
π‘ Spanish-English bilingual candidates are highly encouraged to apply.
Due to the global nature of the projects and stakeholders, bilingual Spanish speakers not located in Georgia may be considered for fully remote work, with travel to project sites as needed.
If you enjoy working hands-on with Linux systems, networking, and automation in mission-critical environments, this is a unique opportunity to step into the rapidly growing battery energy storage (BESS) space.
π What Youβll Be Doing
- Deploy and configure Linux-based servers, edge devices, and virtualized environments (Ubuntu, VMware, Proxmox)
- Build and maintain automation scripts (Ansible, Bash, Python) for scalable system deployment
- Support industrial networking and communications (VLANs, firewalls, Modbus, DNP3, OPC UA, MQTT)
- Manage and optimize databases (PostgreSQL, MariaDB) for high-frequency operational data
- Work hands-on with hardware commissioning and site deployments across operational energy sites
- Troubleshoot and resolve complex system integration issues in uptime-critical environments
- Partner cross-functionally with engineering, operations, and field teams
β What Weβre Looking For
- 3 years of experience in Systems Engineering, Infrastructure, DevOps, or IT/OT environments
- Strong hands-on experience with Linux system administration
- Experience with automation tools and scripting (Ansible, Bash, Python, etc.)
- Solid understanding of networking fundamentals (VLANs, firewalls, routing)
- Experience supporting or deploying systems in production / uptime-critical environments
- Strong troubleshooting skills and ability to work across hardware software systems
- Spanish-English bilingual proficiency strongly preferred
β Nice-to-Have (But Not Required)
- Experience in energy, utilities, or industrial environments
- Exposure to battery energy storage systems (BESS) or renewable energy projects
- Familiarity with SCADA / ICS / OT systems
- Experience with containerization or edge computing environments
π‘ Why This Role Stands Out
- Break into the high-growth renewable energy BESS industry
- Opportunity for remote flexibility for bilingual Spanish speakers
- Work on real-world infrastructure powering the grid
- Blend software, systems, and hands-on deployment work
- Join a company at the forefront of energy innovation and sustainability
