Apache ActiveMQ Consultant

Job Overview:

Our client, a leading neutral freight consolidation service, offering forwarders and customers of all sizes the world’s largest owned LCL end-to-end network, unparalleled schedule integrity, and industry-leading information technology applications, is looking for an Apache ActiveMQ Consultant for their growing team.

They prefer a candidate with in depth knowledge and experience in this platform to boost the company’s knowledge. The product (AMQ) is being used in some new software and this may evolve in a longer term consulting engagement for the client.

Currently, a consulting firm is implementing an ERP-type package and they have some expertise with AMQ, which is part of the package, to help set it up. The client has no in-house expertise on the Apache ActiveMQ, and this is where the selected candidate comes in. As the said consultant, you will make sure that everything goes smoothly and work on the configuration. This is an urgent opening for the company.

Specific Duties and Responsibilities for the Role:

• Configuring AMQ from an infrastructure perspective, including performance monitoring, integration functions, delivery status and network management.
• Configuring adaptors from an application connectivity perspective, specifically Sterling Integrator B2B and AMQ.
• Handling Messaging features and functions typically used by applications, including ack/nak, recovery and error handling.

Qualifications

Qualifications for the Role:

Since Apache is implementing a JMS specification in the AMQ product, we could also look at people with significant knowledge and experience on other JMS specification platforms. In addition to AMQ, we could look for people using other providers such as:

• Oracle AQ
• JBOSS Messaging
• Open MQ/Open JMS
