The focus is on: - Building a sustainable, ongoing process to manage technology life cycle (e.g., Windows 2012/2016/2019/22, SQL, Oracle, Linux, etc.) - Driving accountability and visibility across application owners and business stakeholders - Reducing reliance on extended support (e.g., current spend on extended support for Windows 2016) - Enabling leadership to understand risk, cost, and timelines for remediation and upgrades Key Responsibilities - Establish and maintain the life cycle program - Design and stand up a repeatable, sustainable process to manage OS and database life cycles across the environment. - Define and refine the data model and criteria needed to understand life cycle status (e.g., current version, compatibility with future OS versions, vendor constraints, budget implications). - Ensure the program can be reused for future cycles (e.g., when Windows 2019 is retired, then 2022, etc.). - Inventory and data gathering - Work with multiple teams to compile and validate inventories of: - Applications - Servers / OS versions - Databases (SQL, Oracle, etc.) - Vendors and owners / key contacts - Leverage existing data sources (e.g., older Excel inventories, vCenter, other internal inventories) as starting points, then: - Perform sanity checks and confirm what is still accurate. - Identify gaps where ownership has changed or data is stale due to reorgs. - Application & vendor engagement - Force structured decisions from application teams and vendors, such as: - Is the current version compatible with the target OS/database version (e.g., Windows 22 / 25)? - If not, does the application have upgrade rights, or is a new license purchase required? - What is the planned timeline (e.g., "Q3 2026") to upgrade or migrate? - Drive professional but firm follow‑up with application owners who do not respond, escalating when necessary. - Analysis, reporting, and dashboards - Build and maintain dashboards and reports showing: - Total population (e.g., number of applications / servers by OS version) - Which are good to go vs. blocked - Which require upgrades, new licenses, or vendor involvement - Planned vs. actual completion dates by team / owner - Items needing exceptions (e.g., never upgrading, requiring segmentation) - Tools could include Excel (pivot tables & charts), Power BI, or Tableau, depending on skillset and internal tooling. - Accountability and escalation - Clear attribution when delays are caused - Provide leadership with transparent views so decisions (e.g., exceptions, extended support spend) are made with full context. Required Experience & Skills Core experience - Prior experience as a Business Analyst in an infrastructure / application context - Experience working with: - Technology teams (OS, database, infrastructure) - Application teams and their leadership - Vendors (for upgrade paths, compatibility, support requirements) - Proven ability to run structured data‑driven programs, not just one‑off analyses.
