Job Summary

We are looking for a strong webMethods Administrator with hands‑on experience in managing, supporting, maintaining, and troubleshooting webMethods environments, particularly in production environments. The ideal candidate should have strong expertise in webMethods administration, server configuration, upgrades, patching, shutdown/startup activities, production fixes, Update Manager, and environment maintenance.

This role requires someone who is strong on the administration/infrastructure side of webMethods, rather than primarily a webMethods developer.

Key Responsibilities

• Perform installation, configuration, administration, and maintenance of webMethods environments.
• Manage webMethods Integration Server and related components across development, QA, UAT, and production environments.
• Perform webMethods version upgrades, migrations, patches, and hotfixes.
• Strong hands‑on experience with webMethods Update Manager for applying patches, fixes, and product updates.
• Perform server shutdown and startup activities during planned maintenance and production deployments.
• Manage and troubleshoot production issues, including identifying root causes and implementing permanent fixes.
• Perform server configuration, environment configuration, and application‑level configuration as required.
• Monitor webMethods services and infrastructure and ensure high availability and stability of production environments.
• Troubleshoot Integration Server, package, service, connectivity, and runtime‑related issues.
• Perform planned maintenance activities, including patching, upgrades, server restarts, and configuration changes.
• Coordinate with infrastructure, database, application, network, and middleware teams for production issue resolution.
• Support deployment and release activities across webMethods environments.
• Maintain system health, logs, configurations, operational documentation, and troubleshooting procedures.
• Participate in production incident management, RCA, and preventive action implementation.
• Support disaster recovery, backup/restore, and environment recovery activities where required.
• Ensure changes are implemented according to change management and production support processes.

Mandatory Technical Skills

• Strong hands‑on experience in webMethods Administration.
• Strong experience with webMethods Integration Server administration.
• Hands‑on experience with webMethods Update Manager.
• Strong experience in webMethods upgrades and patching.
• Experience with server shutdown/startup and maintenance activities.
• Strong experience in production support and production fixes.
• Experience in webMethods server/environment configuration.
• Strong troubleshooting and incident resolution skills.
• Experience supporting enterprise production environments.
• Good understanding of middleware infrastructure and application/server dependencies.

Good to Have

• Experience with webMethods Broker, Trading Networks, Universal Messaging, API Gateway, Designer and Deployer.
• Experience with Linux/Unix and Windows server environments.
• Knowledge of application servers, databases, networking, SSL certificates and connectivity troubleshooting.
• Experience with high availability, clustering and disaster recovery.
• Exposure to monitoring and ITSM tools such as ServiceNow/Jira.
• Experience working in 24x7 production support environments.

Ideal Candidate Profile

The ideal candidate should be an administration‑focused webMethods professional who has independently handled production environments, upgrades, patching, Update Manager, server configuration, shutdown/startup, troubleshooting and production fixes. Candidates who are primarily webMethods developers with limited administration experience will not be preferred.
