Our offices are based in Auckland, Wellington, Christchurch, Tauranga and Hamilton.

We therefore leave it to you and the team you join to figure out what works best!

• Leading IBM storage operations and strategy within the client's environment.
• Administering IBM enterprise storage arrays including the IBM 7000 series Flash storage arrays, IBM 9000 Flash storage arrays, and IBM 8000 series mainframes.
• Managing IBM Spectrum Control, performing proactive monitoring and optimisation.
• Delivering end-to-end managed storage services and contributing to hybrid cloud solutions.
• Providing technical leadership, mentoring others in IBM storage practices, and driving process improvements.
• Liaising closely with the client to align storage capabilities with changing business requirements.
• Troubleshooting, performance tuning, and capacity planning for IBM storage environments.

We are an agile company and are keen to respond to customer, technology, and internal stakeholders’ changing requirements, which means our roles evolve to meet those needs.
