Job description

The opportunity

You'll join a high-performing Unix/Linux Platform Engineering team managing enterprise-scale SAP infrastructure on IBM POWER hardware. This is a critical role at the intersection of day-to-day operations and a major platform transformation — migrating workloads from Oracle/AIX to SAP HANA/SLES. If you thrive in complex, large-scale environments and want your work to have real infrastructure impact, this is the role for you.

Your key responsibilities

  • Administer AIX and SLES LPARs on IBM POWER via PowerVM, including VIOS break/fix support
  • Patch OS and PowerHA clusters for AIX and SLES; provision and decommission LPARs/VMs
  • Support platform migration: IBM Power10 to new target platform, and Oracle/AIX to HANA/SLES replatforming
  • Conduct operational DR testing and manage high-availability cluster operations
  • Develop automation using POSIX shell scripting, Ansible, and BigFix fixlets
  • Support application upgrades across SAP landscapes and ancillary tools (MQSeries, Sterling Integrator, VPSX, etc.)
  • Test and document emerging technologies (POWER11, AIX 7.3.x, SLES16, RHEL 9.x on POWER)
  • Produce technical documentation and weekly status reports to the platform lead

Skills and attributes for success

  • Strong analytical and troubleshooting skills in complex, multi-platform environments
  • Ability to work independently while contributing to a structured, enterprise-level team
  • Clear written and verbal communication — comfortable producing documentation and status reports
  • Flexible and available for after-hours and weekend on-call support as required

To qualify for the role you must have

  • Hands-on AIX 7.x system administration experience
  • SLES 15 on IBM POWER — Linux administration in a POWER architecture context
  • PowerVM virtualization — LPAR provisioning, management, and troubleshooting
  • VIOS (Virtual I/O Server) — administration and break/fix support
  • PowerHA SystemMirror for AIX — HA cluster configuration and patching
  • POSIX shell scripting — automation and operational tooling
  • Active Directory / LDAP integration; Dell/EMC storage infrastructure familiarity

Ideally, you'll also have

Ansible · ServiceNow · Centrify · Autosys · Rubrik · Dynatrace · LPAR2RRD · IBM IPTK/LPM Toolkit · PowerBroker

What we offer

  • Salary: US$100,000 – $140,000 / yr
  • Contractor rate: US$80 – $95 / hr

Why choose us

  • An international community bringing together more than 110 different nationalities
  • An environment where trust is central: 70% of our leaders started their careers at the entry level
  • A strong training system with our internal Academy and more than 250 modules available
