Serves as the primary technical owner and operational steward of the organization's database, middleware, and web platform ecosystem. This role carries a dual mandate: ensuring the reliability, security, and continuity of production systems that underpin both internal operations and customer-facing applications today, while actively partnering with IT leadership to rationalize, modernize, and reduce the legacy footprint over time. The ideal candidate brings the operational discipline to maintain complex, interdependent systems with minimal oversight and the forward-looking mindset to recognize when a platform should be evolved, replaced, or retired rather than simply preserved. Looking ahead, this role will play a foundational part in building and sustaining the platform environment that powers KMBS's enterprise AI capabilities including self-hosted large language model environments and the data pipelines that connect them to our core business systems.
Responsibilities
Administer and monitor enterprise database, middleware, and web platform systems daily; triage error logs and alert queues as first priority
Manage and maintain scheduled automation including SQL Agent jobs, Linux cron jobs, and payroll load processing
Deploy and maintain applications across WebSphere (WAS), OpenLiberty, and Apache/PHP platform environments
Perform OS-level and application-level patching across Linux (RHEL) and Windows Server environments
Own end-to-end SSL/TLS certificate lifecycle across web servers, Java keystores, and application servers
Manage DNS records and domain registrations across multiple registrars
Support vulnerability management via Tenable and Bitsight reporting and drive remediation of findings within defined SLA windows
Serve as primary on-call escalation for production outages across web, middleware, and database platform tiers including after-hours response
Diagnose and resolve failures systematically across the full platform stack (firewall → web server → app server → database)
Tune and optimize database queries, batch processes, and scheduled jobs for performance and reliability across SQL Server and other administered database platforms
Maintain and support integrations across the middleware platform stack including ETL pipelines, API connections, and data flows between enterprise systems
Support the operational platform layer underlying MuleSoft integration deployments including server health, connectivity, and middleware dependencies between enterprise systems
Evaluate and lead the migration of legacy scheduling and automation toward enterprise platforms, reducing manual operational dependencies over time
Identify and recommend platform components that are candidates for modernization, managed service transition, or retirement in partnership with IT leadership
Introduce and advance configuration-as-code practices to replace manual configuration with repeatable, version-controlled platform operations
Support the design, deployment, and ongoing operations of an enterprise AI platform environment including self-hosted large language model infrastructure, vector databases, and RAG pipeline components
Participate in functional and technical design reviews to ensure platform decisions align with performance, security, and scalability requirements
Maintain runbooks, architecture diagrams, credential inventories, and operational playbooks for all owned systems, ensuring no critical system or process is dependent on a single individual's undocumented knowledge
Document scheduled jobs, system dependencies, and non-standard configurations

MuleSoft awareness — familiarity with MuleSoft as the organization's primary integration platform; ability to support platform-layer troubleshooting of integration flows connecting SAP, Salesforce, and external APIs without owning the platform directly
