This role will be highly focused on the execution, monitoring, troubleshooting, and validation of large-scale data migrations.

Execute, monitor, and troubleshoot large-scale data transfers during scheduled migration windows. Support the subsequent transition of the data platform to Hammerspace. Monitor migration performance, throughput, capacity, errors, and overall transfer health. Troubleshoot failed, stalled, or degraded data transfers and resolve issues in real time. Investigate storage, file system, permissions, connectivity, networking, and performance-related issues impacting migration activities. Validate migrated data and help ensure data integrity throughout the migration process. Coordinate with storage, infrastructure, networking, application, vendor, and project teams during migration activities. Participate in after-hours and on-call coverage during scheduled migration events. Document migration activities, issues, resolutions, and operational procedures. Assist with migration planning, sequencing, testing, cutover activities, and post-migration validation.

Strong experience supporting enterprise storage environments. Hands-on experience with Dell Isilon and/or Dell PowerScale. Experience executing or supporting large-scale data migrations. Strong understanding of enterprise NAS and file-based storage technologies. Experience troubleshooting high-volume data transfers and storage performance issues. Understanding of file systems, permissions, networking, storage protocols, and data integrity concepts. Ability to troubleshoot complex infrastructure issues independently during production migration windows. Comfortable working scheduled evening, overnight, weekend, and on-call migration windows as required. Strong communication and documentation skills.

Preferred Qualifications:

Experience with Hammerspace or similar data orchestration/data management platforms. Experience with Pure Storage enterprise storage solutions. Experience migrating petabyte-scale datasets. Experience working in complex enterprise infrastructure environments. Knowledge of NFS, SMB/CIFS, NAS, DNS, networking, and identity/permissions as they relate to enterprise storage.
