Who We Are

At Highstep Technologies, we believe people are the real edge.

Our DNA is built on five core values — Empathy, Excellence, Ownership, Integrity, and Growth Through Community.

These aren’t slogans; they guide how we treat each other and how we serve our clients. We call it a values-first culture - where how we work matters just as much as what we deliver.

We show up as one team - employees, contractors, and partners - united by respect, curiosity, and follow-through. We’re proud to be the kind of place where people can contribute, learn, and grow together.

Our clients include some of the largest utility and infrastructure organizations in North America - teams who trust us to modernize the systems that keep cities running.

If you find purpose in solving tough problems, bringing order to complexity, and helping organizations change for the better - you’ll fit right in.

About the Role

We’re looking for an experienced Maximo Application Suite (MAS) Functional Integration Lead to help large organizations implement, upgrade, and get the most out of IBM Maximo (MAS 8/9).

You’ll help connect people, processes, and technology - making sure every solution works smoothly and creates real value for the teams who depend on it.

This is a hands‑on leadership role. You’ll guide clients through upgrades, integrations with ERP and mobility tools, and long‑term improvements that make their operations stronger and simpler.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead the setup and integration of MAS 8/9 for new and existing clients, including cloud-based environments (AWS, OCI, or Azure).
  • Run workshops with stakeholders to understand how Maximo works today and define what it should do tomorrow.
  • Turn business needs into clear plans, documents, and integration designs that developers can act on.
  • Work closely with technical and operations teams to keep timelines realistic and results on track.
  • Oversee all stages of testing - from early trials to final user approval.
  • Serve as the main point of contact between clients and delivery teams, keeping communication open and expectations clear.
  • Create simple, useful guides, process documents, and training materials.
  • Support teams after launch, helping them adjust and get the most value from the system.

Required Qualifications

• 10+ years of experience with IBM Maximo, including at least 3 years with MAS 8 or 9.
  • Experience leading full Maximo projects - from planning and setup to go-live and support - including cloud migrations.
  • Strong understanding of key Maximo areas: Asset, Work, Inventory, Procurement, and Scheduling.
  • Experience linking Maximo with ERP systems (like Oracle Financials or MS Dynamics) and mobile tools (such as DataSplice or EZMaxMobile).
  • Comfortable working in Agile or Waterfall environments and using tools like Azure DevOps.
  • Strong communication skills - you can explain technical things clearly to both business and IT leaders.
  • IBM Maximo certification (e.g., Deployment Professional - Maximo Manage v8.0) preferred.
  • Bachelor’s degree in Business, IT, Engineering, or a related field.

Preferred Attributes

• Worked in complex, highly regulated settings - like utilities, energy, or government - and know how to move projects forward while meeting strict requirements.
  • Familiar with tools like Red Hat OpenShift or ServiceNow and understand how cloud-based systems fit into larger enterprise environments.
  • Skilled at keeping teams connected and productive, even when they’re spread across different locations or organizations.
  • Document your work, share what you learn, and help people adapt to change - because progress only sticks when everyone understands it.

Why Join Highstep

• Be part of transformation projects that make a visible impact for major companies.
  • Collaborate with smart, respectful teammates who value precision and follow‑through.
  • Grow in a culture built on learning, inclusion, and trust.
  • Earn competitive pay and have access to real opportunities for career development.
  • Enjoy the freedom to own your work - with the support of a team that has your back.
  • Many of our consultants go on to lead within our PMO, OCM, and MAS practices.

The Invitation

At Highstep, we’re building more than a consulting firm - we’re building a community of leaders who believe how we work is the real differentiator.

If you see yourself in this description - if you lead with empathy, take pride in your work, and want to make technology feel more human - we’d love to meet you.

Even if your background looks a little different, reach out. The right mindset matters as much as the resume.

Apply now. Let’s build the future of Maximo together.
