Note* Client is looking for only locals who can do Onsite from day1 onsite

Qualifications/Abilities:

Someone that has experience in moving a system out of i-Series/DB2 over to SQL server database and another more modern code.

This person could be a Manager, Director or a Team Lead as long as they have been involved in the modernization and have had people underneath them at that project.

The most likely scenario would be a move to SQL Server and Java and .NET but the client is open to suggestions as long as it is on-Prem and not cloud based infrastructure.

This person has to have recent working knowledge of i-Series and RPG Code.
