Job Description
Must Have Skills
  • Hands-on experience migrating Informatica workflows to IDMC.

  • Strong understanding of ETL, SQL, and Unix.

  • Ability to lead a team working on the migration of Informatica PowerCenter workflows to IDMC.

  • Ability to identify migration issues and compatibility challenges and provide appropriate solutions.

Role Summary

We are seeking an experienced Informatica PowerCenter (PC) and Informatica Intelligent Data Management Cloud (IDMC/IICS) Developer to support the migration of enterprise data integration solutions from Informatica PowerCenter to IDMC. The ideal candidate will have strong ETL development experience, hands-on expertise in both PowerCenter and IDMC services, and experience assessing, migrating, and optimizing ETL workloads in cloud environments.

Key Responsibilities
  • Analyze existing Informatica PowerCenter mappings, workflows, sessions, and reusable objects for migration to IDMC.

  • Design, develop, test, and deploy ETL/ELT solutions using Informatica Cloud Data Integration (CDI) and other IDMC services.

  • Perform end-to-end migration activities from PowerCenter to IDMC, including mapping and workflow assessment, conversion and redevelopment of ETL logic, parameter and configuration migration, validation and reconciliation, and performance optimization.

  • Review and compare DEV, QA, and PROD environments to identify configuration, parameter, and code differences.

  • Validate production configurations and dependencies to ensure accurate migration.

  • Migrate and optimize complex transformations, workflows, task flows, and reusable components.

  • Work with source and target systems including Oracle, SQL Server, and flat-file integrations.

  • Troubleshoot migration issues and resolve data quality, performance, and connectivity challenges.

  • Create migration documentation, technical specifications, and deployment procedures.

  • Collaborate with architects, business analysts, and support teams throughout the migration lifecycle.

  • Perform unit testing, system integration testing, and production validation.

Role Description1. CDI-PC / PowerCenter Asset Analysis
  • Analyze Informatica CDI-PC / PowerCenter workflows, mappings, sessions, mapplets, worklets, parameter files, reusable components, and dependency structures.

  • Assess current-state conversion readiness, identify complexity drivers, and document technical assumptions, gaps, and risks.

  • Review runtime behaviors, parameterization patterns, file handling logic, source/target connectivity, and transformation-level dependencies.

  • Analyze B2B service dependencies and EDI-related integration patterns, including awareness of 835/837 file format handling where applicable.

2. IDMC / IICS Design and Build
  • Design and create IDMC / IICS assets corresponding to legacy sessions, mappings, workflows, and runtime configurations.

  • Create and validate mapping tasks, taskflows, connections, schedules, parameters, and other IDMC assets required for end-to-end migration.

  • Ensure IDMC implementation aligns with functional intent, source-to-target rules, transformation behavior, scheduling needs, and operational controls.

  • Drive configuration consistency, naming standards, reusable patterns, and environment migration practices across the conversion workstream.

3. Complex Transformation Handling
  • Provide technical analysis for complex Informatica transformations, including Java transformations, XML transformations, expression/router/lookup/aggregator patterns, and reusable transformation logic.

  • Understand transformation behavior in IDMC compared with CDI-PC / PowerCenter, including capability differences, conversion constraints, and required redesign patterns.

  • Identify transformation-specific risks, build IDMC-compatible alternatives, and guide developers on remedi
