The Challenge:

Your experience as a Linux administrator has taken you far and wide. You have seen and done it all—Red Hat, SUSE, Ubuntu, and CentOS. So how else can you grow your skills and expand your experience? By working with Booz Allen Hamilton’s carrier-grade 5G Lab! Manage and maintain our cutting-edge cloud-native network to support vulnerability research, data science efforts, virtual and augmented reality programs, and much more. Our internal and client-supported work relies on the availability of our 5G Lab, and we need you to meet those expectations.

As a 5G Linux system administrator, you will apply your expertise in virtualization and network design to support focused research efforts and client-funded projects. Since you’ve already mastered enterprise Linux management, you welcome the challenge of learning telecommunications architecture. Collaborating with internal and external teams, you bring creative solutions to challenging problems users of the 5G lab encounter.
