Cognos Server Administrative Manager

Orlando, FL 32809

Posted: 04/21/2026 Industry: IT Job Number: 54954

Job Description

Manager, Cognos Server Administration
 Orlando, FL 

About the Role
We’re looking for a hands-on leader in Business Intelligence infrastructure to take ownership of our IBM Cognos environment and help scale enterprise reporting capabilities.

As the Manager of Cognos Server Administration, you’ll lead a technical team responsible for platform performance, governance, and reliability—while partnering closely with Data, IT, and business teams to deliver high-impact analytics solutions.

If you enjoy owning systems end-to-end, improving performance, and leading technical teams, this is a high-visibility role with real impact.

What You’ll Do
  • Lead and mentor a team managing IBM Cognos environments (upgrades, patching, configuration, performance)
  • Own platform performance, uptime, and scalability through proactive monitoring and optimization
  • Partner with Data Engineering, IT, and Analytics teams to ensure efficient data pipelines and reporting delivery
  • Oversee deployment and governance of reports, dashboards, and data models across environments
  • Manage security and access controls (user provisioning, roles, credentials)
  • Drive improvements in DevOps, automation, and BI deployment pipelines
  • Troubleshoot and resolve system-level issues, performance bottlenecks, and user requests
  • Maintain relationships with vendors and manage support tickets
  • Ensure proper documentation, runbooks, and operational standards are in place
  • Act as a key stakeholder in enterprise reporting and analytics initiatives

What You Bring
  • 4+ years of experience with IBM Cognos administration (11.x or 12.x)
  • 2+ years leading or managing technical or BI teams
  • Strong experience with performance tuning, server configuration, and environment management
  • Proficiency in SQL and data platforms (Snowflake, ETL tools like Rivery or similar)
  • Experience with report distribution and scalable BI environments
  • Familiarity with DevOps practices in BI/data ecosystems
  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, or related field

Nice to Have
  • Experience in healthcare or regulated industries
  • Knowledge of data warehousing (star/snowflake schemas)
  • Experience with data governance and metadata management
  • Background in system migrations or BI tool implementations

Why This Role Stands Out
  • High-impact role influencing enterprise analytics strategy
  • Lead and shape a growing BI infrastructure team
  • Work with modern data platforms and scalable architecture
  • Drive real improvements in reporting performance and reliability

Work Environment
  • Collaborative, fast-paced, and highly cross-functional
  • Opportunity to work closely with senior leadership and data teams
  • Mix of hands-on technical work and strategic leadership
