Configure and utilize Java Application Performance Monitoring products for troubleshooting, reporting, capacity planning and trending.
Skills Required
Experience developing in Java, ideally web-based applications
Knowledge of Java infrastructure (ie. internals of the JVM, garbage collection, classloaders etc…)
Solid Linux/Unix conceptual and working knowledge
Knowledge of TCP/IP, HTTP, SSL protocols
Websphere system management and architecture experience
Troubleshooting of WAS V6.1, V7.0 environments and applications (analyze JVM logs, Trace Logs, FFDC, native logs, java core, heap dumps)
Skills Desired
Understanding of Websphere command line scripting interface and Jython language.
Scripting using Perl or Python
Experience working in DMZ environments with good understanding of TCP/IP, hardware load-balancing (ideally F5 BigIP?), firewalls, multi-tiered architectures.
Experience with configuration and use of Java Application Performance Monitoring tools.
