Junior System Administrator & IT Tech

Do you want to join us in revolutionizing how music is made? This is a fantastic opportunity for an ambitious and curious junior IT tech to grow in an environment where creativity meets technology.

At XLN Audio we develop world-leading software for all music makers. Our award-winning products empower millions of musicians and songwriters every day.

About the roleYou will play a key role in our Core Tech team, delivering IT architecture, system administration, DevOps and web development services to the whole company. The team manages all our internal and external systems and is central to our products and operations.

The role is varied - here are some examples of what you will do:

• Setup, configure and manage our Linux based servers
• Develop our core IT infrastructure internally and externally
• Help define and implement our DevOps processes used in building our products
• Provide IT and platform services for all parts of the company
• Support in office IT needs, e.g. networking, computers and servers

We work in a mixed environment based on Linux, macOS and Windows. Our servers are mainly based on reproducible Linux installations (NixOS), with services built on major cloud platforms.

About youAbove all you are curious, ambitious and eager to learn. It's natural for you to get things done: you take pride in completing what you set out to do, not leaving things half done.

You have knowledge and experience from one or more of the following:

• Computers and hardware in general, Linux in particular
• Service and network administration
• Nix / NixOS
• Experience with Amazon Web Services or Google Cloud Platform
• Software/web development in general

Your formal experience is less important, but you probably have a deep technological interest and some work or educational experience from the work areas mentioned above. Computers and technology is probably a hobby of yours - perhaps you tinker with Raspberry Pi systems, build mechanical keyboards or self host your own NAS storage solution.

It's a big plus if you have an interest in playing or making music in some form: making beats, playing with synths, drumming or playing the guitar.

Location and work/life balanceOur standard work model is hybrid with high flexibility, allowing you to be at your most productive and creative self, at our office in Stockholm, Sweden, or at home.
