Job Description

Overview

Serves as the primary technical owner and operational steward of the organization's database, middleware, and web platform ecosystem. This role carries a dual mandate: ensuring the reliability, security, and continuity of production systems that underpin both internal operations and customer-facing applications today, while actively partnering with IT leadership to rationalize, modernize, and reduce the legacy footprint over time. The ideal candidate brings the operational discipline to maintain complex, interdependent systems with minimal oversight and the forward-looking mindset to recognize when a platform should be evolved, replaced, or retired rather than simply preserved. Looking ahead, this role will play a foundational part in building and sustaining the platform environment that powers KMBS's enterprise AI capabilities including self-hosted large language model environments and the data pipelines that connect them to our core business systems.

Responsibilities

Administer and monitor enterprise database, middleware, and web platform systems daily; triage error logs and alert queues as first priority

Manage and maintain scheduled automation including SQL Agent jobs, Linux cron jobs, and payroll load processing

Deploy and maintain applications across WebSphere (WAS), OpenLiberty, and Apache/PHP platform environments

Perform OS-level and application-level patching across Linux (RHEL) and Windows Server environments

Own end-to-end SSL/TLS certificate lifecycle across web servers, Java keystores, and application servers

Manage DNS records and domain registrations across multiple registrars

Support vulnerability management via Tenable and Bitsight reporting and drive remediation of findings within defined SLA windows

Serve as primary on-call escalation for production outages across web, middleware, and database platform tiers including after-hours response

Diagnose and resolve failures systematically across the full platform stack (firewall web server app server database)

Tune and optimize database queries, batch processes, and scheduled jobs for performance and reliability across SQL Server and other administered database platforms

Maintain and support integrations across the middleware platform stack including ETL pipelines, API connections, and data flows between enterprise systems

Support the operational platform layer underlying MuleSoft integration deployments including server health, connectivity, and middleware dependencies between enterprise systems

Evaluate and lead the migration of legacy scheduling and automation toward enterprise platforms, reducing manual operational dependencies over time

Identify and recommend platform components that are candidates for modernization, managed service transition, or retirement in partnership with IT leadership

Introduce and advance configuration-as-code practices to replace manual configuration with repeatable, version-controlled platform operations

Support the design, deployment, and ongoing operations of an enterprise AI platform environment including self-hosted large language model infrastructure, vector databases, and RAG pipeline components

Participate in functional and technical design reviews to ensure platform decisions align with performance, security, and scalability requirements

Maintain runbooks, architecture diagrams, credential inventories, and operational playbooks for all owned systems, ensuring no critical system or process is dependent on a single individual's undocumented knowledge

Document scheduled jobs, system dependencies, and non-standard configurations

Qualifications

Core Requirements -

Proven production experience administering Microsoft SQL Server environments including SSIS, SQL Agent scheduling, linked servers, and T-SQL development (stored procedures, functions, views, indexes)

Demonstrated ability to tune and optimize SQL queries, SSIS packages, and batch processes for performance and reliability

Hands-on Linux/RHEL systems administration including shell scripting, cron job management, patching, and Apache/PHP stack operations

End-to-end SSL/TLS certificate lifecycle management across web servers and Java keystores

DNS record management and domain registrar relationships in a production enterprise environment

IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) administration including application deployment, configuration, and operational troubleshooting

OpenLDAP directory administration including load balancer configuration, import/export automation, and clustering architecture

Windows Server administration including SQL Agent jobs, RDP management, and OS-level operations

PowerShell and/or bash scripting for operational automation and recurring task management

Systematic incident diagnosis and resolution across a multi-tier stack (network web application database)

Familiarity Preferred -

IBM DB2 - working familiarity sufficient for break-fix and annual maintenance cycles; deep expertise not required as managed service coverage is being evaluated

SSIS / SSRS - ability to maintain and support existing pipelines and reports while evaluating a migration path toward Azure Data Factory and Power BI

Legacy job scheduling (cron, SQL Agent) - maintain current automation while supporting evaluation and migration to an enterprise scheduling platform such as Tidal

OpenLDAP operational knowledge - manage current directory environment while supporting a planned transition toward Microsoft Entra ID as the primary identity platform

Uptrends or equivalent monitoring tools - familiarity with current alerting posture while driving consolidation into a unified observability platform

MuleSoft awareness - familiarity with MuleSoft as the organization's primary integration platform; ability to support platform-layer troubleshooting of integration flows connecting SAP, Salesforce, and external APIs without owning the platform directly

Forward-Thinking Aptitude - Growth Expectations

Infrastructure as Code (IaC) - working knowledge of or genuine interest in Ansible, Terraform, or PowerShell DSC to replace manual, undocumented configuration with repeatable, version-controlled infrastructure

Microsoft Azure fundamentals - comfort with or curiosity about Azure IaaS/PaaS aligned to the organization's existing M365 and Entra ID footprint

AI-assisted operations - openness to leveraging GitHub Copilot, AIOps platforms (Datadog, Dynatrace), or AI-driven automation to scale operational coverage and reduce manual overhead

Container basics - foundational awareness of Docker and container concepts relevant to modern OpenLiberty and application workloads

Enterprise AI platform - foundational awareness of self-hosted LLM deployment, GPU compute requirements, model serving frameworks (Ollama, vLLM), vector databases, and RAG pipeline concepts in support of an internal generative AI capability

REST/API integration patterns - understanding of modern integration approaches in alignment with the organization's existing MuleSoft architecture
