Windows Server Migration Engineer
Server Migration
-, Remote, United States
Community Project
We are looking for 1 to 2 specialists who are proficient within Windows server setups and configuration.
Tasks would include:
Migrating servers from old to a new domain
All servers are Windows' based
Configuration of DNS and relevant clients
Post migration testing and verification
We will provide this resource with a step-by-step guide, and this will be a repetitive task - applied to 100+ servers. We expect to start in August and expect to be done by October/November. We will supply work PCs with certain access - it is important you can commit to the whole duration (might not be available every day/week), but that you are available to work 80-100 hours a month on this project.
We will be supplying a laptop that will have remote access into the servers that need to be worked on.
This will be a fully remote position (but you must be US based) and you will be able to work from your home (but you need to be located within the US). We don't foresee any travel. That said - if you are able to work some days from our Chicago office, that would be superb.
*** Candidates who have NERC CIP certification will be preferred.
