Dear Mastodon,I am a mechanical engineer who is about to make a major #career change. I have received a job offer from an international company for an Application Engineer position. The role involves supporting #CAD (computer-aided design), #PLM (product lifecycle management), and #PDM (product data management) systems and their underlying infrastructure.As far as I know, most of the applications are #Windows-based, but there are likely some #Unix-like systems involved as well. I do not have formal system administration experience, so I am looking for guidance on which technologies I should focus on to make this transition as smooth as possible. Could you recommend useful books, technologies, or keywords to explore?For context, I have homelab-level experience with Linux, networking, SSL, reverse proxying, ZFS, Solaris zones, bhyve, and FreeBSD, and I have been using OpenBSD as my desktop operating system for years.Thank you in advance for any #advice or recommendations.TASKS AND RESPONSIBILITIES:- Implementation, configuration, and maintenance of software and systems related to the supported area in line with corporate requirements.- Installation, configuration, and maintenance of critical software systems, as well as providing expert-level support to end users.- Management of application-related changes, handling major upgrades, and the introduction and testing of new systems and developments.- Publishing and testing new releases.- System administration and monitoring to ensure the performance and proper operation of supported software and systems.- Troubleshooting and problem resolution, including the management of system updates and fixes.- Analysis of business requirements and implementation of related processes.- Support for project management, including the preparation of documentation and reports.- Communication with clients and business units to maintain synergy between business requirements and system solutions.

Hello all,I have a friend who has been on mastodon.social for a while but is looking to become more active. I've suggested they move to a different instance, but now we are both wondering what instance would be a good one for them.They say they are here for #Science and #Art ... they are a performer and performance-designer ...Any suggestions? Are there any helpful sites for choosing an instance? I have my own, so I've not had this issue.If you're comfortable, boosts would be welcome.Thanks in advance!#Advice #Fedi
