Hire Dedicated Linux Administrators
Add a vetted administrator to patch, harden and keep your servers running, whatever cloud or platform they sit on, without the cost of a full-time hire.
50+ ERP and software projects. Zero failed projects since 2021.
Servers that just keep running are the ones someone is watching
Unpatched packages, forgotten cron jobs, and access nobody remembers granting build up quietly on any server left unmanaged. A dedicated administrator keeps it under control.
Security updates on a schedule, not an afterthought
Patching gets postponed when it competes with other priorities, and the gap between a disclosed vulnerability and an exploited one keeps shrinking. A dedicated administrator patches on a schedule and tests before rolling out.
- Patches applied on a regular schedule.
- Changes tested before wide rollout.
- Downtime scheduled, not accidental.
User access reviewed, not accumulated
Old accounts, unused sudo access and forgotten SSH keys accumulate on servers that grow organically. A dedicated administrator audits access regularly and closes off what nobody uses anymore.
- User access reviewed on a schedule.
- Firewall rules that match actual need.
- Services hardened, not left at defaults.
The same checks, run on a schedule
The same routine applies whether the server sits on AWS, Azure, Google Cloud or on-premise hardware.

How Hiring a Dedicated Linux Administrator Works
From the requirements call to servers that are patched, hardened and monitored. Here is how we vet, match and onboard every Linux administrator we place.
Vetting, matching and onboarding, in that order
Every administrator is tested on real server operations
Before an administrator joins our bench, they are tested on patching and hardening fundamentals, access management, and a hands-on task diagnosing a misconfigured service under simulated load.
- Patching and hardening fundamentals.
- User and access management.
- A real service-misconfiguration diagnosis task.
You get a shortlist, not a resume pile
We match administrators to your specific setup: the distributions you run, the platform they sit on, and the timezone overlap that works for your team. You see 2 to 3 fitting profiles, not fifty.
- Matched to the distributions you run.
- Matched to your hosting platform.
- Matched to your working hours.
A structured start, then you take the lead
The administrator reviews your servers and current patch status, agrees priorities with you, and starts on the first fix in the first week. You manage priorities directly from there.
- A review of your servers and patch status.
- Agreed priorities for the first sprint.
- Direct day-to-day management by your team.
