Infrastructure Engineer

Description

Tyler Technologies is seeking applicants for an Infrastructure Engineer to support our State and Federal group.

The Infrastructure Engineer is responsible for the administration, maintenance, and support of enterprise Windows Server infrastructure across both on-premises data centers and Amazon Web Services (AWS). This role plays a key part in supporting business-critical production systems while helping modernize the infrastructure through an ongoing cloud migration initiative.

The engineer will be responsible for maintaining the health, security, and availability of Windows infrastructure by performing server administration, operating system patching, vulnerability remediation, troubleshooting, infrastructure deployments, and lifecycle management. As the organization continues its migration to AWS, this position will help build cloud infrastructure while maintaining and supporting existing on-premises environments.

This position requires strong technical expertise, operational discipline, excellent communication, and the ability to independently manage multiple priorities while following established operational and change management processes.

We are not considering candidates who require visa sponsorship for this position. This is a budgetary decision and due to the significant talent available currently who do not require such sponsorship.

This is a hybrid role which will require 3 days onsite, in office, per week.
