• Deliver structured knowledge transfer to support the transition of operational responsibilities to LANL staff
• Collaborate with infrastructure, cybersecurity, ERP, application, identity-management, and management teams
• Communicate technical risks, implementation status, and recommended solutions to stakeholders

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Computer Science, Information Systems, Science, Business Management, or a related discipline
• Seven or more years of directly applicable experience implementing and supporting complex enterprise application platforms
• Extensive hands-on experience deploying and administering Strategy Customer Managed Cloud in production environments
• Demonstrated experience installing, configuring, upgrading, troubleshooting, and supporting Strategy CMC
• Experience deploying and operating Strategy CMC on Red Hat OpenShift
• Direct experience as an OpenShift operator or administrator
• Strong knowledge of Kubernetes, Linux, containers, and enterprise container platforms
• Experience migrating or enabling existing Strategy or MicroStrategy reports, dashboards, applications, and security configurations within a CMC deployment
• Strong understanding of Strategy architecture, platform services, and operational best practices
• Experience supporting enterprise analytics, reporting, business-intelligence, or ERP environments
• Demonstrated experience leading software implementations from initial deployment through production support
• Experience developing technical documentation and operational procedures
• Demonstrated ability to mentor technical staff and provide knowledge transfer
• Strong written and verbal communication skills
• Ability to work independently in a remote environment

Preferred Background

• Experience migrating an on-premises MicroStrategy environment to Strategy Customer Managed Cloud
• Experience integrating Strategy with enterprise identity, authentication, authorization, and security services
• Experience supporting highly available analytics or business-intelligence platforms
• Experience with platform monitoring, disaster recovery, backup, restoration, and performance optimization
• Red Hat OpenShift certification
• Kubernetes certification
• DOE, NNSA, federal government, national laboratory, or other highly regulated enterprise experience
• Current or prior DOE Q Clearance or another federal security clearance

Work Environment

• LANL equipment will be shipped to the selected candidate
• No travel, driving, or onsite work is anticipated

• Assignment is expected to continue through September 30, 2027
• Extension or conversion is not anticipated because this role supports a defined bridge solution

Why This Role

This is a high-impact opportunity to lead the deployment of a mission-critical enterprise analytics platform for one of the nation’s premier national laboratories. You will have direct ownership of the Strategy CMC implementation, help establish a stable production environment, and prepare LANL personnel to manage the platform successfully after the transition. The ideal candidate can enter the project, quickly assess the environment, build the required containers, complete the Strategy CMC installation, stabilize production operations, and effectively mentor the internal LANL team.
