As a Senior Infrastructure Engineer (On-Prem) at AeroVect, you will own and scale the physical infrastructure that supports our autonomous vehicle operations at our garage facilities. Your primary focus will be deploying, configuring, maintaining, and troubleshooting bare-metal servers, networking equipment, and rack infrastructure to ensure reliable operations across our active airport deployments.

This is a highly hands-on infrastructure role, ideal for someone with a strong background in Linux systems administration, data center infrastructure, physical networking, and hardware reliability. You don't need to be a software engineer. We're looking for someone who enjoys working directly with hardware, building reliable infrastructure, and solving complex operational challenges.

You'll work in a fast-paced environment where infrastructure directly supports autonomous vehicles operating in live airport environments. As AeroVect scales its fleet and expands to new locations, you'll play a key role in building standardized, reliable, and scalable on-prem infrastructure.
