Job Details
We are looking for someone with strong DR experience, over 3 years minimum with overall 12 years experience. This person will not be doing hands on failover testing themselves- this will be done by the respective application owner. The technical knowledge and experience are necessary however, as they will be guiding each application owner through this process and verifying that the work will be done correctly.
Key Responsibilities of the Lead Role
- Not a hands-on fingers-on-keyboard role.
- Requires technical understanding of failover processes to document accurately without halting execution.
- Must guide application owners who execute the tests.
- Deep familiarity with cloud and on-prem DR practices (AWS, Azure, Zerto, Commvault, Veeam).
Environment & Tools
- Environments are either 100% cloud or 100% on-prem no hybrid.
- Testing done in non-prod when possible; prod testing only off-hours if required.
- No physical travel required; production data centers are remotely managed.
Skillset Requirements
- 8+ years experience in DR, restoration, and backup operations preferred.
- DR certifications not mandatory (Carrie holds relevant certs).
- Regulatory familiarity (HIPAA, SOC 2) is helpful
- generalist system/network engineers without DR experience will not be considered
Testing Structure
- Tests tracked by number of tests, not number of applications.
- Applications with shared architecture or identical recovery processes will be grouped.
- CMDB entries may overrepresent individual recovery tests.
