BMC Helix CMDB Discovery Engineer for NATO with security...

Discovery is where a configuration database either earns its keep or quietly stops being true.

You will own discovery engineering for the BMC Helix CMDB at the alliance headquarters in Brussels, as part of a dedicated capacity team.

What you will be doing

• Designing, running and tuning discovery against the estate so the CMDB reflects what is actually there
• Building and maintaining discovery patterns, credentials and schedules
• Reconciling discovered data into the CMDB and resolving the conflicts that reconciliation surfaces
• Investigating gaps between discovered and expected inventory, and closing them
• Reporting on coverage and data quality to the service owners

What you will need

• Hands-on BMC Discovery experience, including pattern work
• Strong CMDB and reconciliation practice
• The patience for data quality work, which is most of what discovery really is
• The professional certifications the requirement asks for, BMC Helix and ITIL among them

Worth knowing before you apply

• Fully on-site at the alliance headquarters in Brussels
• You would be joining a small dedicated engineering team, not working alone
• The engagement runs in two phases: a dedicated capacity phase first, then a managed service phase

Practical detail

• Contract engagement, initial phase of six to twelve months
• An active security clearance is required for this role
