NEW JOB OPENING
SENIOR BMC HELIX DEVELOPER&ADMINISTRATOR
IN Bethpage, NY, USA!

Platform Support & Operations

• Serve as a tier-3 subject matter expert for BMC Helix production issues across Smart IT, Digital Workplace (DWP), Service Catalog, Incident, Change, Request, and PC Store modules.

• Investigate and resolve submission failures, approval errors, workflow exceptions, authentication issues, and integration faults — with the ability to drill from aggregate metrics to individual user failures for remediation.

• Perform root cause analysis on platform, configuration, and custom code issues; document incidents and permanent fixes.

• Participate in on-call rotation for critical Helix platform outages and major submission/approval failures (ticket queue management is handled separately).

• Manage environment promotion (Dev ? QA ? Prod), change control, and release validation for Helix configurations and customizations.



Monitoring, KPIs & Platform Health

• Build and maintain Helix-native monitoring and KPI dashboards (15-minute refresh) covering login health, form/catalog usage, submission success/failure rates, approval integrity, and integration health.

• Configure and optimize AR System audit, custom KPI snapshot tables, scheduled escalations/filters, and operational reports.

• Define and tune alert thresholds for submission failure spikes, integration errors, and authentication anomalies.

• Partner with Technology Operations leadership to provide platform health and adoption metrics — distinct from ticket volume and queue metrics.



Development & Configuration

• Design, build, and maintain Helix customizations including forms, workflows, filters, escalations, process definitions, and record definitions (Innovation Studio / Helix Platform as applicable).

• Develop and enhance Digital Workplace catalog items, questionnaires, service definitions, and self-service experiences — including PC Store fulfillment flows.

• Configure and optimize Incident and Change intake in Smart IT — focusing on reliable submission, validation, templates, and approval paths (not ticket tracking/reporting).

• Implement Service Desk form consolidation — reduce form sprawl, retire unused forms, and standardize intake paths per platform strategy.

• Deliver UI/UX improvements across DWP and Smart IT — layout, field logic, validation messaging, mobile usability, and branding consistency.



Integrations & APIs

• Build and maintain REST API integrations between Helix and enterprise systems, including but not limited to:

o PubSub (event messaging)

o SailPoint (identity lifecycle/provisioning)

o Device42 (asset/inventory for PC Store)

o IT Automation platforms

o HRIS event triggers (hire, transfer, termination workflows)

• Develop middleware, webhooks, and custom integration layers using AR REST API, Helix Platform API, and DWP APIs.

• Implement robust error handling, retry logic, correlation IDs, and integration failure logging aligned with KPI and support requirements.

• Manage API authentication, service accounts, OAuth/RSSO, and least-privilege access for integrations.



AI & Automation

• Evaluate, configure, and extend BMC Helix AI capabilities (HelixGPT, cognitive service desk features, intelligent search, virtual agent/chatbot) where licensed and appropriate.

• Integrate AI-assisted features with Optimum knowledge sources (OLLI/Confluence — not Helix KB per platform strategy) and service catalog content.

• Build automation for repetitive platform tasks — provisioning workflows, approval routing, data sync, and self-healing integration retries.

• Ensure AI integrations comply with Optimum security, data classification, and privacy policies — no PII exposure in unauthorized contexts.



Governance, Security & Documentation

• Enforce RBAC, field-level security, and data access controls — including anonymous aggregate reporting with restricted drill-down for failure investigation.

• Maintain technical documentation: architecture diagrams, integration specs, runbooks, form catalogs, and release notes.

• Support SOX-relevant workflows (e.g., HR access provisioning) with auditability and approval integrity.

• Collaborate with Security, IAM, and Compliance on access reviews, service account governance, and integration security.



Migration & Continuous Improvement

• Support ongoing ServiceNow ? BMC Helix migration workstreams: PC Store, Service Desk, Incident/Change, HR workflows, and form consolidation.

• Identify decommission candidates (unused forms, redundant intake paths) using platform usage analytics.

• Recommend and implement platform optimizations — performance tuning, filter efficiency, escalation scheduling, and catalog UX improvements.



Required Qualifications

Experience

• 5+ years of hands-on experience with BMC Remedy / AR System / BMC Helix in an enterprise production environment.

• 3+ years in a senior developer, administrator, or technical lead role on Helix or equivalent ITSM platform.

• Demonstrated experience supporting Helix ITSM, Smart IT, Digital Workplace, and Service Catalog (SRM) in production.

• Proven track record building and maintaining REST API integrations between Helix and external enterprise systems.

• Experience with Incident, Change, and Request module configuration — workflows, approvals, templates, and self-service intake.

• Experience operating multi-tier Helix environments (AR Server, Mid-tier, RSSO/SSO, database layer).



Technical Skills

• AR System: forms, active links, filters, escalations, permissions, audit configuration, SQL/reporting on AR schema.

• Helix Platform / Innovation Studio: record definitions, views, processes, rules, deployment (preferred).

• Digital Workplace & Service Catalog: service definitions, catalog items, questionnaires, approval mappings.

• Smart IT: configuration, plugins, incident/change/task creation flows.

• Integration: REST/SOAP APIs, webhooks, JSON/XML, authentication (OAuth 2.0, SAML, API keys, service accounts).

• Scripting/development: Java, JavaScript, or equivalent for AR filters, web APIs, and custom extensions.

• Database: SQL query and performance analysis (SQL Server and/or Oracle — match your environment).

• Reporting: Helix native reporting, dashboards, Pentaho, or equivalent BI within Helix ecosystem.



Soft Skills

• Strong problem-solving and analytical skills — comfortable diagnosing failures from audit trails and logs.

• Excellent communication — translates technical issues for business stakeholders and service owners.

• Ability to prioritize in a migration environment with competing demands and tight timelines.

• Detail-oriented with solid documentation habits.

• Extensive experience with BMC Helix 25.x / 26.x
