    The Opportunity

    Reporting directly to the IT Infrastructure Manager, the Unix/Linux Administrator ensures the optimal performance, stability, and security of Gildan''s core operating system platforms and file-transfer networks. This position is vital to maintaining business continuity across global operations, supporting everything from virtualization layers to specialized enterprise applications.

    As part of a business that operates around the clock, this position requires commitment to a rotational on-call schedule including scheduled evenings and weekends to ensure seamless operational coverage, support international sites, and execute critical updates outside of standard business hours.

    The Role

    • Systems Administration: Provision, configure, and maintain RedHat Linux enterprise environments, Oracle Virtual Machine (OVM), VMware, and core system hardware.
    • Managed File Transfer (MFT): Support and optimize critical enterprise data exchange via SFTP frameworks and HelpSystems GoAnywhere, ensuring script standards and configuration protocols are met.
    • Application Support: Assist in the administration, patching, and technical support of specialized enterprise platforms.
    • Security & SOX Compliance: Enforce network and physical security policies, administer user access controls, and meticulously update SOX compliance documentation.
    • Change & Patch Management: Test and deploy system upgrades, software patches, and environmental changes rigorously to guarantee zero disruption to integrated client systems.
    • Business Continuity: Maintain, evaluate, and test the system Disaster Recovery (DR) Plan.
    • Documentation & Audit: Maintain up-to-date system documentation, step-by-step operational procedures (with visual captures), and software license inventories.
    • Service Delivery: Provide high-quality technical support to internal clients, promptly resolving issues and enhancement requests.
    • Innovation & Research: Conduct research and solution comparisons to provide data-driven recommendations for new technology acquisitions and system enhancements.
    • Operational Communication: Assist in the effective, timely communication of upcoming planned and unplanned systems changes to users

    The Requirements

    • Education: Bachelor's degree in computer science, Information Technology, or a related technical discipline (or equivalent professional experience).
    • Experience: 10+ years of proven experience as a Linux/Unix Systems Administrator in an enterprise setting.
    • Communication Skills: Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to clearly articulate technical changes to both technical teams and business stakeholders
    • Technical Mastery: In-depth knowledge of RedHat Linux, robust Shell scripting (Bash), and enterprise SFTP infrastructure.
    • Virtualization: Strong administrative knowledge of OVM (Oracle Virtual Machine) and VMware frameworks.
    • Valued Assets: Experience with HelpSystems GoAnywhere, IBM VIO, or AIX environments is highly advantageous.
    • Compliance & Security: Prior experience working within a regulated environment (such as SOX compliance) and managing strict security protocols.
    • Collaboration: Proven ability to work cross-functionally with Infrastructure, Business Intelligence (BI), and Development teams across international sites.
    • Operational Flexibility: Flexibility and willingness to participate in a rotational, on-call framework to support a 24/7 global manufacturing operation

    What's in it for you?

    • Join a publicly traded company dual-listed on NYSE and TSX with great potential
    • Be part of a workplace where meaningful connections and teamwork are celebrated
