Join our high-tech and people-friendly place, whose mission is to support one of the best and fastest growing public research universities in the world. Along with the opportunity to work within a talented IT team, University of California, Irvine offers: excellent compensation packages, full benefits, conference participation and travel, and an exciting fast paced and technically challenging atmosphere. We are looking for a talented Senior Solaris Systems Administrator to assist in planning and expanding the university's portal and administrative application infrastructure. The position will be responsible for architecting, planning, implementing and managing a clustered 24/7 campus-wide application web presence. The server environment is undergoing dramatic change as the university transforms its legacy IBM mainframe-based systems to a J2EE/Solaris/Windows environment.

Attention to detail, excellent written and oral communication skills, capacity to plan, ability to execute, and a commitment to excellence are required. Participation in Higher-Ed conferences, such as Educause, is highly encouraged and provides opportunities for travel.
