Description:
Lead the design, build and operational launch of a RHEL server offering on IBM LinuxONE. Work with the mainframe, Linux, network, storage, security and service-management teams to define responsibilities and deliver a service application teams can consume. Essential experience IBM LinuxONE / IBM Z:
Understanding of LPARs, IFL capacity, platform resilience and the chosen virtualisation approach—such as z/VM or KVM. Enterprise RHEL:
Familiarity with provisioning, patching, hardening, monitoring, backup, automation and production support. Cross-platform delivery:

Delivery of service catalogues, support models, SLAs, disaster recovery, operational acceptance and onboarding. Technical project management:

Platform capacity, virtualisation, networking, storage, security and management tooling. Confirm workload readiness:
Validate application, middleware and vendor support for Linux on IBM Z (s390x)—do not assume x86 workloads can move unchanged. Establish the operating model:
Agree who provisions, patches, monitors, backs up and supports each layer. Lead a pilot:
Prove provisioning, application compatibility, performance, recovery and support processes. Deliver production readiness:
Secure operational sign-off, publish the service catalogue and manage initial onboarding. Expected deliverables Integrated delivery plan and RAID log. Agreed architecture and responsibility matrix. Capacity, licensing and cost model. Provisioning and lifecycle-management processes. Security, backup and disaster-recovery acceptance evidence. Operational runbooks, support model and service catalogue. Pilot results and production go-live approval.
