Job Description

IBM i to IBM Cloud Migration Specialist We're looking for an experienced IBM i / iSeries specialist who has been involved in migrating IBM i workloads into IBM Cloud.
This is a hands-on opportunity for someone who understands the IBM i environment and can help us assess the current estate, shape the migration approach and support the move into IBM Cloud.
What you'll be doing

Assessing the existing IBM i / iSeries / AS400 environment and understanding the current estate
Supporting the migration of IBM i workloads to IBM Cloud
Helping define the migration strategy, architecture and approach
Assessing applications, dependencies, databases, interfaces and integrations
Identifying potential migration risks, challenges and dependencies
Working with technical teams and stakeholders to plan and execute the migration
Supporting migration planning, testing and cutover activities
Providing hands-on technical expertise throughout the process
Advising on opportunities to modernise the existing IBM i environment as part of the move to the cloud

What we're looking for We're particularly interested in someone with:

Strong hands-on experience with IBM i / iSeries / AS400
Proven experience delivering or supporting IBM i migrations to IBM Cloud
Experience with IBM Power Systems / Power Virtual Server (PowerVS) would be highly desirable
Good understanding of IBM i architecture, workloads and dependencies
Experience with DB2 for i
Understanding of legacy IBM i applications and technologies such as RPG / RPGLE and CL
Experience assessing and planning cloud migrations
Strong troubleshooting and problem-solving skills
The ability to work independently and get into the detail of an existing environment

The key thing We're not looking for someone who has simply worked with IBM i or IBM Cloud separately.
We need someone who has genuinely been involved in moving IBM i/iSeries workloads into IBM Cloud and understands the practical challenges involved.
If you've done this before and can help us work out the best approach, we'd be very interested in speaking with you.
