The key thing
We’re not looking for someone who has simply worked with IBM i or IBM Cloud separately.
We need someone who has genuinely been involved in moving IBM i/iSeries workloads into IBM Cloud and understands the practical challenges involved.
If you’ve done this before and can help us work out the best approach, we’d be very interested in speaking with you.
