Senior IBM Apptio & Cloudability Administrator

Description

Senior IBM Apptio & Cloudability Administrator (TBM / FinOps Lead)
Operation Stormbreaker · U.S. Marine Corps Community Services
Quantico, VA - Hybrid · Active Secret clearance required

Help build a program from the start, then lead it

Most Apptio roles hand you an environment someone else designed. This one doesn’t. Operation Stormbreaker is standing up its IBM Apptio Costing, Planning and Cloudability environment now, and we’re looking for the person who will help build it, then own it.

You’ll join during an approximately 11-month implementation alongside MCCS, G2IT, Raven Solutions and IBM Professional Services. When it goes live, you won’t hand it off and move on. You’ll become the primary administrator and subject matter expert for the environment, and you’ll keep running and improving it from there.

Stormbreaker is growing. As more mission customers, applications and cloud workloads come on board, Technology Business Management and FinOps will matter more and more to the program. This role is designed to grow with it, into Stormbreaker’s long-term technical and functional lead for TBM, IT financial management and FinOps.
