About the Role

This role supports migrations and operations/engineering tasks for the QIP and Bluecat environment during a transition. The individual will work within a migration team, collaborating with other support teams and business application owners.

Responsibilities

  • Support migration, engineering, and operations work in the QIP and BlueCat environments throughout the transition.
  • Run multi-pass migrations: export QIP data, write transformation scripts, and clean up orphaned records, inconsistent TTLs, overlapping IP blocks, and misconfigured DHCP options before import.
  • Map QIP objects and custom properties to BlueCat’s object hierarchy and User-Defined Fields, then run bulk imports and validate the import logs.
  • Manage DNS coexistence and query routing during the transition using BlueCat Edge or BIND forwarding rules, while keeping lookups to the legacy system working.
  • Migrate DHCP scopes without IP conflicts by shortening legacy lease times before cutover and managing active lease hand-offs.
  • Design and validate rollback and failback plans for each phased site cutover.
  • Inventory custom QIP REST/SOAP integrations and rewrite them against BlueCat’s REST v2 API.
  • Integrate BlueCat with Ansible, Terraform, and ServiceNow so automated provisioning keeps working after migration.
  • Coordinate with supporting infrastructure teams and application owners.

Requirements

  • Senior-level DDI experience, with strong knowledge of QIP internals (objects, subnets, profiles, and its Sybase/Oracle database) and how it differs from native BIND.
  • Strong knowledge of BlueCat Address Manager and BlueCat DNS/DHCP Server, including Configurations, Blocks, Subnets, Devices, and User-Defined Fields.
  • Experience running stepped (multi-pass) data migrations, including data normalization and high-volume bulk imports.
  • DNS coexistence and query routing during a dual-platform transition.
  • DHCP lease migration strategy and rollback/failback planning.
  • Advanced DNS: views, dynamic DNS across legacy and new servers, DNSSEC, and traffic monitoring.
  • Scripting in Python, Bash, or PowerShell for data checks and delta merges.
  • Linux appliance administration and BlueCat service deployment roles.
  • Works well in a team and with application owners.
  • API mapping from QIP to BlueCat: rewriting custom QIP REST/SOAP endpoints for BlueCat REST v2.
  • DevOps and ITSM integration experience with Ansible, Terraform, and ServiceNow.
  • Hybrid and multi-cloud DNS (AWS Route 53, Azure DNS), including avoiding IP overlap and forwarding sprawl.
  • Prior large financial-services enterprise experience.
