Job Description:
AI Hive is seeking a hands-on, skilled Sr. Systems Administrator based in India to serve as the local IT operational lead and execution arm for Enterprise Operations. This role functions as “remote hands” for U.S.-based IT leadership, delivering day-to-day service desk support, building and provisioning laptops and servers, and maintaining local infrastructure in alignment with global standards. This position is critical to freeing AI Hive engineers from operational IT tasks—such as device builds, infrastructure troubleshooting, and hardware support—so they can focus on delivering Hivemind and other core engineering initiatives.
The Systems Administrator will report administratively to local India leadership while receiving functional direction, priorities, and technical oversight from U.S. Enterprise IT. The ideal candidate is a service-oriented generalist who combines strong hands-on technical skills with operational discipline and a security-first mindset. This role is based in India and supports the AI Hive entity.
