IT Specialist – Server

About the Position as IT Specialist – Servers

Frederiksberg Municipality is looking for 1-2 IT specialists with an interest in servers. They have a mission to create an admirable and up-to-date IT landscape with a user and business focus. The municipality’s IT is centralized in a department currently consisting of 40 dedicated and specialized colleagues distributed across 6 teams. There is a constant focus on developing and improving the IT strategy, and you can be part of this exciting and socially relevant development.

You will become a part of the Server, Network, and Integration team, which means that you will also have an impact on establishing and developing the IT infrastructure of Denmark’s 6th largest municipality through complex business-oriented tasks that involve 7,000 users. The team consists of six employees, with two focusing on servers, three on networks, and one on integrations. Although there will be a divided task focus, it is still essential that you can take ownership of other processes as there will naturally be overlaps between tasks.

In the short term, there is a move towards outsourcing the internal data center, and there will also be a focus on server upgrades. The team is also responsible for implementing security protocols and measures, as well as coordinating and implementing integrations between central applications. Over time, the municipality’s goal is to migrate all servers to an Azure platform and act as a sparring partner for users to ensure they have an optimal setup on the right servers.

In the role of IT Specialist, you will be responsible for the following:

• The municipality’s server infrastructure and the applications hosted on it, including administration, maintenance, and optimization of the infrastructure.
• Patching of servers in VMWare, databases, storage, backup, as well as maintaining documentation and an overview of the municipality’s servers and associated applications.
• Automation, optimization, and coordination of server resources, processes, and capacity.
• Technical clarification of server solutions and planning and implementation of the server solution itself.
• Implementation of security protocols and measures, as well as coordinating and implementing integrations between central applications.
• Development, planning, and implementation of the municipality’s server target architecture in collaboration with the municipality’s architects.
