  • Define migration approach, wave sequencing, risks, and rollback strategies
  • Identify application, HA/DR, and environment‑specific dependencies
​Design & Configuration
  • Design and configure middleware components per enterprise and BFS build standards
  • Perform IBM MQ design and configuration (Queue Managers, channels, listeners, HA/DR)
  • Support load balancer integration and configuration for middleware traffic
  • Configure security artifacts, including SSL/TLS certificates and access controls
  • Enable automation and observability integrations (IR360, OTEL, Instana or equivalent)
​Migration Execution
  • Execute middleware migrations from Heritage → NGDC using approved approaches
  • Monitor migration jobs, remediate failures, and validate configuration/object synchronization
  • Ensure service continuity, message/data integrity, and minimal downtime​
​Cutover & Validation
  • Support production and pre‑production cutover activities and HA/DR failover drills
  • Perform post‑migration health checks (service status, queue depth, connectivity, performance)
  • Validate application connectivity and obtain functional sign‑off from stakeholders
​Post‑Migration & Decommissioning
  • Update CMDB, compliance, and operational documentation
  • Deliver build scripts, migration reports, and execution metrics
  • Close Jira stories and ServiceNow change/incidents
  • Support legacy middleware decommissioning and handover to steady‑state teams
​Required Qualifications:
  • IBM MQ (Design, Configuration, HA/DR, Security)
  • Java / J2EE fundamentals (middleware integration and troubleshooting)
  • Load Balancer design and configuration (F5 or equivalent)
  • Middleware design, build, and configuration in enterprise environments
  • Datacenter Migration / DC Exit / DC Refresh programs
  • Security (SSL/TLS, certificates), observability, and monitoring
  • ServiceNow, Jira, and CMDB processes
  • Experience in regulated BFS environments
  • 4–8+ years of experience in enterprise middleware support, build, and datacenter migration programs.
  • Strong understanding of middleware architecture, design, and configuration in large‑scale enterprise environments.
  • Proven ability to analyze, troubleshoot, and resolve middleware issues during migration, cutover, and post‑migration phases.

​Extensive hands‑on experience with:
  • ​IBM MQ (Queue Managers, queues, channels, listeners, HA/DR, security)
  • Java / J2EE fundamentals for middleware integration and issue analysis
  • Load Balancers (F5 or equivalent) – design, configuration, and traffic routing
  • SSL/TLS certificates, keystores, and enterprise security standards
  • Strong understanding of HA/DR concepts, failover testing, and production cutover practices.
  • Experience working in regulated BFS environments with strict governance and compliance requirements.
  • Hands‑on experience with ServiceNow, Jira, and CMDB updates during migration programs.
  • Exposure to observability and monitoring tools (IR360, OTEL, Instana or equivalent) is a plus.
