 Technology teams will have to meet evolving expectations in scalability and security, which will see a shift in the scope of responsibilities for infrastructure teams.

Beyond managing existing systems, demand for innovative infrastructure talent will soar as organisations look to maximise the potential of cloud initiatives and focus on customer and business user experience.

Your Infrastructure recruitment questions, answered

What skills should I look for when hiring Infrastructure professionals?

CVs and technical assessments will of course tell you if someone has the basic technical skills and qualifications. But when it comes to assessing for a broader range of skills, interviews are key. Ask questions about their practical experience and scale of the environments they have built or managed in similar roles.
 
Find out how they manage stakeholders from operations versus those in development. Ensure they are confident communicators, adept at working with and securing buy-in both from highly technical professionals and those with far less technological know-how.

How can I assess for skills from Infrastructure professionals?

CVs and technical assessments will of course tell you if someone has the basic technical skills and qualifications. But when it comes to assessing for a broader range of skills, interviews are key. Ask questions about their experience in similar roles and their thought processes on architecting or supporting Infrastructures.  
 
At the same time, you’ll also need to find out how they manage stakeholders from operations versus those in development. Ensure they are confident communicators, adept at working with and securing buy-in both from highly technical professionals and those with far less technological know-how. Finally, make sure they come across as a technical authority on Infrastructure, including Data Centres and the Cloud.  

Is competition for Infrastructure talent high in Japan?

Yes. Organisations from all industries and sectors are hiring Infrastructure professionals to support the roll-out of large digital transformation programmes, or to fix cracks in their Technology Infrastructure exposed by the large-scale, sudden changes caused by Covid-19.
 
Network Engineers are in particularly high demand, and with strengthened focus on data, organisations will also need people with the technical aptitude in running Data Centres and maintaining network and switches.
