Full job description

Role: Linux Infrastructure Engineer

Reports to: Infrastructure Manager

Location: Darlington

Salary: £40,000 - £50,000 plus on-call payment

We’re looking for a proactive and solutions‑driven Linux Infrastructure Engineer to help keep our critical systems running smoothly and our colleagues supported. You’ll play a key role in maintaining, developing and optimising our Linux and HPUX environments, ensuring our services are robust, secure and ready to support the business every day.

What’s in it for you?

Fantastic company discounts: Up to 80% off our stylish kitchen ranges and products
Access to Retail Trust
Flexible holidays: Buy up to five extra days with our holiday purchase scheme
Wellbeing support: Access to our virtual GP service and employee assistance platform 24/7
Lifestyle perks: Cycle to work scheme and savings on hundreds of top brands via our benefits app
A collaborative culture built on care, inclusion, and continuous improvement

What you’ll be doing

As an Infrastructure Engineer, you’ll be at the heart of our technology operations, supporting critical systems and helping us evolve our infrastructure. You’ll:

Administer and optimise Linux environments (RHEL, SLES, Ubuntu or similar)
Deliver OS upgrades, patching cycles, kernel tuning and performance improvements
Develop and maintain automation scripts to drive efficiency
Support the migration from HPUX to Linux
Handle 3rd‑line escalations from the service desk
Monitor alerting tools and take action on critical warnings
Contribute ideas in team meetings, helping us resolve root causes and improve reliability
Identify risks relating to manufacturing, servers or capacity and escalate where needed
Lead or participate in regular disaster recovery testing
Collaborate across locations — sometimes travelling to support issue resolution

You’ll effectively manage your own workload, balancing tickets and in‑flight projects, and act as a key point of escalation for more complex software or hardware issues.

Who we’re looking for

You’re someone who loves solving technical challenges and thrives in a fast‑moving environment. You’ll bring:

Hands‑on experience with Linux (RHEL, SLES or similar)
Experience of administering HPUX environments, is preferred but not essential
Knowledge of virtualisation technologies such as VMware or Hyper‑V
Solid understanding of networking (TCP/IP, DNS, DHCP, VLANs, firewalls)
Over five years’ experience in the UK IT landscape
Great communication skills, with a friendly and collaborative approach
Strong organisational skills and the ability to prioritise independently
Clear and concise documentation skills
A calm, adaptable approach in an ever‑changing environment
Willingness to travel to other sites when needed

Why Choose Magnet

At Magnet, we bring over 100 years of heritage-but our focus is firmly on the future.
As the UK’s leading kitchen specialist, our success is driven by the expertise, insight and innovation of our people.

We’re in the middle of an exciting transformation, with real opportunity to shape how we work, grow and deliver for our customers. We’re always open to fresh thinking and new perspectives—so even if your experience doesn’t perfectly match, we’d still love to hear from you.

We’re committed to building a diverse and inclusive workplace. If you require any reasonable adjustments during the recruitment process, please let us know.
