*O**nly GCs’ Or Citizens who are locals to NY or Denver* A client of ours is looking to fill a *SharePoint Administrator position for either the NYC or Denver Office*. This is *a contract to hire position so candidates need to be US Citizens or Green Card Holders.* I have attached the position for you to review. Candidates MUST have experience managing multiple farms. This is a huge global initiative for this company.
*SharePoint Administrator* This position will have the primary responsibility of maintaining our SharePoint Extranet and Intranet environments. *Responsibilities & Requirements:* Summary of Required Capabilities Technical Skills: -Proficiency in MOSS 2007 -Proficiency in SharePoint Administration -Proficiency in Windows operating system administration (Windows Server 2003/2008) -Strong Server Administration – (IIS, DNS, AD, SSL, Kerberos, SQL 2005/2008) General Skills: -Strong written and verbal communication skills -Strong collaborative customer service skills -Strong collaborative customer service skills-Lead SharePoint infrastructure implementation and maintenance, while collaborating with SharePoint design and development team. -Install, maintain, and support various systems with an emphasis on the membership Extranet and related components (i.e., SharePoint/MOSS Portal, SQL server, e-mail/SMTP, system backups, IIS, Active Directory, DNS, MS Hyper-V, etc.). Required Experience: -Install, configure and/or maintain MOSS 2007 on across six (6) server farms spanning the Internal (Intranet) zone; and potentially two (2) additional zones spanning External (Extranet), and Internet (public site) zones -Maintain all farm administration functions across these farms through Central Administration (a SharePoint site collection dedicated to farm and SSP administration) -Assist and train in-house resource in SharePoint Administration including work instructions and best practices documentation. Operations -Manage Farm Topology - web-front-end (WFE) servers, index servers, Excel Services servers, query servers, and database servers to include the proper distribution of roles and services running on each -Outgoing and Incoming Email settings, which involves knowledge of the proper SMTP servers and management of a SharePoint-dedicated OU in Active Directory where contacts for SharePoint lists will reside and be auto-created. This requires configuring the SharePoint servers as SMTP servers, building connectors in Exchange, and knowledge of managing an entire AD OU -Manage the principle of least privileges through the use of restricted service accounts (10+). Understand why and where each is used and manage those accounts as opposed to the AD admin having to -Manage antivirus and blocked file types. These are SharePoint-controlled functions but will require coordination with the ITIO team -Manage security/permissions for rights to Central Admin and SSPs. Security at this level is granular enough that the Farm Admin can give people permissions to certain areas or functions relevant to their role without giving them full admin access to the farm -Manage Information Rights (IRM) policy and configure integration with Rights Management Services (RMS), both of which will likely be major pieces of our SharePoint production implementation -Manage logging. SharePoint has tons of logging ability that must be enabled, configured, and maintained so that the data is useful and does not overload the server's storage capacity. This includes diagnostic logging, usage analysis processing, and information rights policy usage reports -Manage Single Sign-On. This is not related to the regular Windows single sign-on, but rather to the configuration of SSO with external, non-SharePoint applications, which will be critical when we begin integrating with Oracle DBs and other pre-existing data sources on the science side -Manage timer jobs, which are critical to SharePoint scheduled operations and will list in the hundreds -Manage alternate access mappings, which are critical to the navigation and accessibility of the many separate sites both internal and external. Requires tight synchronization with DNS and IIS but is managed from SharePoint, because all changes must be registered in the SharePoint database -Manage farm features and solutions. All site collections and sites have their own features that are visible and enabled or disabled, but it all starts at the farm level where the SharePoint Admin manages what solutions (custom code packages from developers) are deployed and what features are enabled for use at the site level -Manage backup/restore and disaster recovery operations. SharePoint has its own software-based backup functionality along with scheduling. This should be used along with backup procedures for both SharePoint itself (IIS metabase) and the database servers where SharePoint resides. Backups need to be made throughout the day with full backups nightly, and there needs to be a disaster recovery plan with offsite mirroring (or other DR/COOP methods), all of which should be maintained meticulously by the SharePoint Admin. -Manage content deployment for certain Extranet and Internet sites. When we want to provide information to the public or external partners but in an anonymous manner where users have no rights/permissions, we will have an authoring site where our client's personnel create and manage content, but then the SharePoint Admin configures a content deployment path as well as a content deployment job that then deploys that new content to the anonymous production site either on a schedule or manually when content is ready. The initial setup and deployment itself are complicated and can only be done from Central Admin SharePoint Server Administration - Maintain multiple SharePoint environments (3 or 4 farms) - Production - Hardware (5+ servers) - Staging - Virtual (5+ servers) - Dev/Test - Virtual (2-3 servers) - Keep each server up-to-date - Ensure regular backups from either SharePoint, SQL or DPM - Facilitate and accommodate low level recovery when needed - Facilitate and accommodate disaster recover if needed Required Skills: MICROSOFT SHAREPOINT PORTAL SERVER 2003, IIS, MOSS, MICROSOFT SQL SERVER, Active Directory, DNS, MS Hyper-V, MS WINDOWS SERVER 2003, MS Windows Server 2008 Please let me know if you have anyone you could recommend. Again, this person can sit in either the Denver or NYC and pretty sure they could interview accordingly. NYC would be 1st choice though. *PLEASE SEND ME THE RESUMES TO MY OFFICIAL ID BELOW* *Best Regards* *Chris** Nihaki Systems,Inc.
