Remote builds with IntelliJ

I am having the following problem: a) I have a UNIX build environment set up on a remote server I can ssh into b) I have IntelliJ on Windows What I would like to do is to edit the files through a remote connection (similar to the functionality that exists for Emacs) and issue shell commands such as 'make' and running simple 'test-scripts' which exist on the server.. Are the functions to do this integrated into IntelliJ or will I need a plug-in?
