A national monetary authority is developing and operating secure file exchanges between internal applications and external parties. The Senior MFT Consultant will provide end-to-end administration of a GoAnywhere MFT platform, combining Linux operations, Oracle and ETL integrations, business analysis, and technical documentation.
The mission
The platform supports controlled file deposits and retrievals for services where confidentiality, traceability, and operational continuity are required. The work covers GoAnywhere MFT administration, access management, upgrades, ticket handling, monitoring, backup and restore procedures, and disaster-recovery drills. Integrations include Identity and Access Management solutions, Splunk-based SIEM monitoring, and other internal services required for fallback scenarios.
The consultant will work across the full lifecycle of the platform, from analysing business requirements and configuring front-end and back-end use cases to supporting integration testing and security remediation. The assignment is planned for four months during 2026, with a possible three-month extension in 2027, and the workload will be used according to project progress. You will also transfer operational knowledge to internal teams through specifications, run-books, and hand-over sessions.
