  • Resident Support: Act as a resident expert for the client throughout the 3-6 month engagement, ensuring smooth execution of the migration and upgrade process.
  • Post-Upgrade Support: Offer post-upgrade technical support and guidance to ensure the clients environment remains stable and optimized.
  • Documentation & Knowledge Transfer: Create detailed documentation for the upgrade process and provide training or knowledge transfer to the client's internal teams.
  • Collaborate with Stakeholders: Work closely with IT teams, management, and other stakeholders to address concerns, provide updates, and ensure alignment with business objectives.

Required Skills & Qualifications

  • Experience with VMware SMARTS: Extensive experience with VMware SMARTS, including previous versions and upgrades.
  • Watch4Net Expertise: Strong understanding and hands-on experience with Watch4Net, including its integration with VMware SMARTS and network monitoring solutions.

  • Migration & Upgrade Experience: Experience with migration and upgrade projects, specifically related to VMware products and network management tools.
  • Communication Skills: Ability to effectively communicate complex technical concepts to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Documentation & Reporting: Strong skills in creating detailed documentation, upgrade plans, and reports for ongoing projects.
