Requirements

JD:- Key Responsibilities: Clustering & High Availability Expertise: Design and implement Pacemaker clustering solutions across multiple operating systems (RHEL, SLES) and platforms to ensure high availability and fault tolerance of critical applications databases and services. Contribute to clustering architecture decisions, ensuring optimal scalability, and reliability of business-critical workloads. Troubleshoot and resolve complex issues related to Pacemaker clusters, providing expert guidance on configuration, failover testing and cluster architecture. Hyperscaler Experties: Utilize extensive knowledge of hyperscaler platforms (Azure, AWS, GCP, IBM Cloud) to design, deploy, and maintain cloud high availability solutions Implement and manage cloud-based high availability (HA) solutions in multi-cloud environments, leveraging cloud-native services alongside Pacemaker clustering for mission-critical applications. Proof of Concepts & Architecture Documentation: Lead and support for proof of concept (PoC) exercises to evaluate new clustering architectures and solutions, documenting the setup, configurations, and lessons learned. Produce detailed technical documentation covering clustering configurations, architecture diagrams, and deployment processes, ensuring knowledge transfer, reproducibility and further automation. SAP Solution Basis & Integration: Leverage expertise in SAP Solution Basis, specifically SAP S/4 HANA, Netweaver, and HANA databases, to implement and optimize clustering solutions for SAP workloads in the cloud. Ensure that SAP systems are properly integrated with Pacemaker clustering to meet high availability requirements. Additional Database Knowledge (Optional): Support DB2 and other database solutions in the context of clustering and high availability to ensure optimal database performance and uptime. Collaborate with database teams to implement clustered databases that are tightly integrated with the cloud infrastructure and clustering technologies. Collaboration & Requirement Preparation: Work closely with development and business teams to define infrastructure requirements for clustered solutions. Participate in detailed requirement analysis sessions with internal and external stakeholders to ensure clustering and HA solutions meet SAP ECS needs and requirements. Communication & Reporting: Fluent in business English, with the ability to communicate technical concepts clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders. Prepare and deliver technical presentations, status reports, and documentation related to clustering solutions and cloud architectures. Qualifications: Education: Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, or a related field. Advanced certifications in cloud platforms (Azure, AWS, GCP) and clustering technologies (Pacemaker) are a plus. Experience: Ideally multiple years of experience in clustering and high availability solutions, with a deep focus on Pacemaker and associated technologies. Hands-on experience in cloud environments (AWS, Azure, GCP, IBM Cloud) with a focus on HA architecture and cloud-native services. Extensive experience with Linux-based operating systems (RHEL, SLES), including basic knowledge of system administration and OS tuning in clustered environments. Technical Skills: In-depth knowledge and hands-on experience with Pacemaker clustering, including resource agents, fencing, and quorum management. Strong understanding of cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP, IBM Cloud) with experience in implementing HA solutions. Experience in deploying and managing SAP systems (S/4 HANA, Netweaver, HANA) in a high-availability clustered environment. Familiarity databases like HANA and DB2 (optional) in a clustered and HA setup. A plus (optional): experience with automation tools (e.g., Ansible)
