In this role, you will participate in vendor interviews and, post-contract, drive the execution of those agreements.

  • Make critical decisions on technology adoption to meet future business needs, prioritize projects, assemble project teams, allocate resources, select vendors, and recommend future state solutions.
  • Collaborate with IT Service Management leadership, IT service owners, the Head of Infrastructure, process owners, and various service delivery groups to develop technical solutions that meet the business needs of the Technology organization.
  • Oversee project progress, manage resources, and ensure the overall quality of completed infrastructure delivery.
  • Provide strong technical leadership, create, and manage infrastructure plans and standards in line with the IT strategic plan and roadmap.
  • Manage change initiatives systematically to ensure the availability, performance, and reliability of systems affected by change.
  • Serve as a liaison between team members and functional area management requesting work.
  • Effectively manage infrastructure projects and resources.

Key Skills and Qualifications:

  • 15+ years of team management and Linux system administration experience within a large infrastructure and organization.
  • Solid experience leading experienced engineers in delivering complex deployment projects and supporting infrastructure in diversified or matrix structures.
  • Extensive experience in large-scale enterprise infrastructure system deployment and integration.
  • Strong experience with Red Hat Linux 6/7/8 administration and VMware virtualization products.
  • Familiarity with VCS setup, configuration, and other cluster solutions.
  • Expertise in IT infrastructure architecture and capability planning.
  • Familiarity with server patching, certificate renewals, and database/middleware products (WAS, IHS, Java, MQ).
  • Understanding of the relationship between application design, data, and infrastructure environments.
  • Experience with DevOps/Agile project execution.
  • Strong people management, performance management, and vendor management skills.
  • Achievement-oriented, creative, disciplined, analytical, and adept at problem-solving and negotiation.
