System Administrator

Mythic is building the future of AI computing with breakthrough analog technology that delivers 100x the performance of traditional digital systems at the same power and cost.

Our Hannover team, videantis Gmb H, brings deep computer vision and video processing expertise to that mission, and we are hiring a System Administrator to be the IT and infrastructure owner on the ground there.

You will keep a highly technical engineering site running day to day, covering servers, network, storage, endpoints, corporate applications, licenses and user support, while leading the local side of a substantial integration program that brings Hannover onto Mythic's global identity, collaboration, source control and security standards.

This is a broad, hands‑on role with real autonomy: you are the site's IT function, backed by a global IT and Dev Ops team in the US that you will work with daily.

You will report to Mythic's Director of IT & Dev Ops and partner closely with the Managing Director of videantis Gmb H.

What you'll do

• Own day-to-day IT operations for the Hannover site: user support, onboarding and offboarding, laptops and workstations, meeting room and AV, printers, and physical office IT.
• Be the local administrator for Mythic's corporate application stack, including Okta and MFA enrollment, Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, Slack, Zoom and Zoom Rooms, Box, and Atlassian (Jira, Confluence and Jira Service Management), and act as the local approver and first line for access requests.
• Administer and maintain the local Linux server, storage, network and firewall environment, including patching, monitoring, backup configuration and tested restores.

The Hannover estate is Ubuntu-based; Mythic's wider fleet also includes a RHEL-family (Rocky/RHEL) track for EDA compute that you will interact with.

• Build and maintain the site's first complete server, workstation, application and license inventory. None exists today, and it is a prerequisite for most of the work below.
• Support the engineering environment the Hannover team depends on: Ubuntu and Windows workstations, self-hosted Git Lab and CI runners, the v-NN SDK build flow, SVN/CVS and Git repositories, and local simulation and design tool licensing (Cadence, Siemens/Questa, Synopsys, X-Formation license manager).
• Lead the Hannover side of the Mythic integration workstreams: Nextcloud to Box and Confluence, STRATO email and hosting to Google Workspace, domain and DNS to Route 53, Git Lab to Git Hub, and local task and customer support tooling to Jira and Jira Service Management.
• Operate and support the site-to-site VPN and network interconnect to Mythic's Austin datacenter, and work with the US Dev Ops team on network redesign, subnet renumbering and migration to a centrally managed network stack.
• Implement Mythic's global security and endpoint standards locally: SSO and MFA, Ninja One UEM enrollment, disk encryption with key escrow, patch SLAs, elimination of shared accounts, access logging, and the evidence required for foundry and customer security audits.
• Handle local IT vendor and license management, hardware procurement and asset tracking, and support GDPR-compliant data handling in coordination with Mythic Legal and outside counsel.
• Document the environment thoroughly and act as the local escalation point and bridge between the Hannover team and Mythic's global IT and Dev Ops organization.
• What you'll bring
• 5+ years of system administration experience, ideally as the primary IT owner for a site or small company.

Completed Ausbildung as Fachinformatiker, a relevant degree, or equivalent practical experience.

• Strong Linux administration skills, with depth in Debian/Ubuntu; familiarity with the RHEL family (RHEL, Cent OS, Rocky) is a plus, since Mythic's EDA compute runs on it.
• Hands‑on administration of a modern corporate Saa S stack: an identity provider (Okta or equivalent SSO and MFA), Google Workspace and/or Microsoft 365, Slack, Zoom, and a cloud content platform such as Box.
• Solid Windows and mac OS endpoint support and experience with an MDM or UEM platform, since employee laptops are Mac or Windows.
• Practical networking experience: firewalls, VPN, VLANs, DNS and DHCP, and comfort troubleshooting connectivity across sites.
• Experience with virtualization, file and NFS/SMB storage, and backup and recovery, including actually testing restores.
• Scripting and automation ability (Bash, Python, Power Shell, Ansible or similar) and a preference for automating repeat work.
• Experience supporting software or hardware engineering teams: version control systems including Git and older systems such as SVN or CVS, build and CI systems, containers, and technical license servers.

Semiconductor or embedded engineering environment experience is a plus.

• Experience running platform migrations, ideally including email, file storage or source control, with minimal disruption to a technical user base.
• Fluent German and professional working English, and the communication skills to be the trusted IT person for a small, senior engineering team while working closely with colleagues eight time zones away.
• Comfortable with ambiguity and migration work, and willing to both set standards and reset a printer.

At Mythic, we foster a collaborative and respectful environment where people can do their best work.
