Operations / Systems Engineers

Jora New Zealand will close on 9th September 2026. Thank you for being with us, we are cheering you on as you continue your career journey. We’re looking for system engineers to help run our substantial and growing infrastructure. As well as helping run infrastructure you’ll also be part of our support team, keeping our customers happy and providing the support we’re renowned for. You should have strong knowledge in at least a couple of these areas: Linux server administration, virtualisation, network administration, scripting languages and popular web frameworks. The tools we're using today could be different in a few months. So, if you enjoy always learning new things, challenging yourself and working in an ever-changing environment then SiteHost is the place for you. This is a place where they encourage upskilling and growth, so if you’re the type of person that loves taking on new challenges, this is the right place for you. Since we use a multitude of different tools/scripts written in different languages, I've been picking things up on the daily. I mainly work with bash, PHP and Python but also use Ansible and Docker quite a lot. I'm now familiar with CMSs such as WordPress and Silverstripe, as well as integrated Web hosting tools like cPanel and Plesk. I've also had to learn how domains and DNS work, along with networking and hardware. I applied because I liked the variety in the role. It sounded like SiteHost were working with some pretty cool tech and in a lot of different areas, so I’d have an opportunity to find what interests me. I also really liked the interview process which was a series of challenges, some programming and some Linux admin tasks, which gave me a good feel for what I would be doing in the role. Interested in joining us? Read more about what it's like to work at SiteHost, and how the application process works, on ourSiteHost careerspage. We're a stable team with a longer average tenure than the industry average. Our people enjoy it here, and we do our best to keep it that way. We've grown from two people in 2004, to ten people in 2014, and we're still going. We've been around long enough to know how to succeed in this industry, but every day still brings a new challenge. #J-18808-Ljbffr
