Description

Are you looking for a meaningful leadership role with stability, balance, and impact?

The Washington State Department of Revenue (DOR) is seeking an experienced Lead System Administrator to provide operational leadership for our enterprise virtualization platforms. This role supports the Compute & Storage Architect and plays a key part in DOR’s transition from VMware to Nutanix AHV, increased automation, and ongoing journey to the cloud.

Revenue is a dynamic learning organization where you will experience a remarkable work-life balance, with amazing leadership and talented co-workers ready and focused to achieve the agency's goals. We value diverse perspectives and life experiences. We employ and serve people of all backgrounds including people of color, immigrants, refugees, LGBTQ+, people with disabilities, and veterans. This unique culture of respect promotes a professional family of cohesive groups maximizing potential through opportunity. We offer a generous benefits package that includes defined benefit retirement plans; health, dental and vision coverage, deferred compensation plans, and as a public service employee, you may also be eligible for student loan forgiveness.

Candidate screening will begin as early as March 9, 2026, and the hiring authority may exercise the option to make a hiring decision at any time after. It will be to the applicant's advantage to submit materials as soon as possible.
