About The Position

Well Fargo is seeking a Lead Infrastructure Engineer, who will be accountable for managing and running VMWare V2V migrations on converged technology solutions that support the exits from legacy sites and platforms to the new data centers portfolio. You will size and scope OpenShift Container Platform workloads and right-sizing VM workloads to avoid over-allocation of key resources. You will build Grafana dashboards to measure capacity consumptions as an input for right-sizing. You will lead a matrix team of technical delivery experts to identify, plan, and execute enablement of converged infrastructure for next gen data center, prioritize migration sequences by collaborating with Migration Factory, CIO Sector teams, Application Development, Cyber Security, & Compute Engineering and Operations from their workload migration schedule. The selected candidate will have deep vertical expertise in converged technology solutions such as Dell PowerFlex, PowerFlex Manager, PowerMax or similar technologies. Detailed assessment of the legacy application portfolio will be completed in collaboration with the Horizontal functions as the exit plan is defined and finalized. You will collaborate and influence across stakeholders: Technology CIO, CTO, and Line of Business (LOB) Senior Managers & Individual contributors, architecture leaders, and engineering leaders in the Application Development, Cyber, Operations, and CTO organizations.
