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.
