Job description
Belay Technologies, a certified Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business located in Columbia, Maryland (Baltimore/Washington area), specializes in systems automation and full stack development and provides leading technology and engineering solutions to the DoD.
We are seeking a Software Engineer to join our intel team. The role will support CNO Capabilities as a senior System Administrator and technical contributor responsible for sustaining and evolving a high‑performance operational IT environment. This position is not a ticket‑only administrator role; we look for a professional who takes ownership of systems, documents with precision, builds strong relationships, and actively seeks ways to improve engineer workflows.
Responsibilities
Install, configure, and maintain high-performance computer hardware, including NVIDIA H100, H200, and B300 class accelerator platforms.
Uninstall and relocate existing equipment to a government data warehouse while ensuring configuration integrity and proper tracking.
Lead installation and sustainment efforts for new and legacy hardware within the warehouse environment.
Document installation procedures, configurations, and lessons learned to create repeatable, scalable deployment playbooks.
Develop strong working relationships with onsite System Administrators at the warehouse to streamline troubleshooting and elevate priorities when mission timelines require it.
Identify gaps in onsite support coverage and recommend improvements to reduce downtime and response time.
Partner directly with contract engineering teams to optimize system performance and user workflows. Maintain detailed technical documentation, diagrams, and standard operating procedures with clarity that allows another engineer to step in seamlessly. Support virtualization efforts and contribute to long‑term IT modernization strategies. Adapt as mission requirements evolve, including future support for AWS, cloud integrations, and Large Language Model infrastructure.
Strong Linux systems administration experience in operational environments.
Experience installing and maintaining GPU‑accelerated or high‑performance computer systems, particularly NVIDIA enterprise class hardware.
Demonstrated ability to document technical processes clearly and professionally.
Experience working within structured data center or warehouse environments.
Familiarity with virtualization technologies and hypervisors.
Ability to troubleshoot hardware and software issues across networked systems.
Strong communication skills and experience interacting directly with mission users.
Proven ability to operate independently while coordinating effectively with distributed support teams.
Nice to have: forward‑leaning mindset with enthusiasm for improving user experience.
Comfort working hands‑on with hardware in a warehouse environment.
Relationship builder who understands that mission success depends on strong coordination with onsite support teams.
Flexible and growth‑oriented, with interest in expanding into cloud, AWS, and LLM support over time.
Commitment to building documentation and processes that make tomorrow’s installs faster than today’s.
Qualifications
TS/SCI Clearance with polygraph.
9 years of experience with or without a B.S. degree.
