MIHAN in Nagpur has a Lead Middleware Administrator opening, full time, on site, with a software team managing integration infrastructure that connects several internal and client-facing systems. Ten years of experience is the expectation, and the role carries real ownership over the messaging and integration layer that a growing number of other systems have come to depend on.
The work covers designing and building software components tied to middleware infrastructure, working closely with product and QA teams, reviewing code and configuration changes from other administrators, and troubleshooting issues reported by users, which in a middleware context often means tracing a failure across two or three systems that only communicate through the layer this role owns. A lead administrator here needs a genuinely systemic view of how everything connects.
Required skills are middleware platform expertise, integration tooling, and troubleshooting instincts sharp enough to isolate a failure across multiple connected systems rather than assuming the problem lives wherever it was first reported. A bachelor's degree in computer science, information technology, or a related field is expected, along with practical, hands-on project experience and proven proficiency in the relevant tools.
MIHAN has grown into a significant logistics and IT hub for Nagpur over the past decade, and the systems this middleware layer connects span multiple business functions, meaning a configuration change here has ripple effects that need real consideration before deployment.
Naukri Mitra has listed software roles from this employer before, and past hires in similar lead positions describe the biggest ongoing challenge as documentation debt, since the integration layer has grown faster than anyone has kept pace with writing down why certain connections were built the way they were, a gap this lead role is expected to start closing.
Interviews include a technical round on middleware and integration architecture, plus a discussion of a past cross-system troubleshooting experience. Candidates who describe a methodical process for isolating a fault across systems tend to interview well.
Performance conversations here happen roughly twice a year, and for a Lead Middleware Administrator specifically, the focus tends to land more on judgment calls and how issues were handled than on raw output volume. A colleague who ships a lot but leaves messes for others to clean up tends to get flagged in review, even if their individual numbers look strong on paper.
A message that silently fails to route between two systems is one of the harder failure modes to catch, since nothing throws an obvious error, and this team has invested in dead-letter queue monitoring specifically because of a past incident where a failed integration went unnoticed for several days before a client flagged missing data.
The integration landscape here has grown from roughly a dozen connected systems three years ago to over thirty today, and the lead administrator's ongoing responsibility includes deciding which older, less-documented connections are safe to deprecate versus which quietly still matter to some part of the business.
The team keeps a shared incident log specifically for integration failures, tagged by which two systems were involved, and reviews it quarterly looking for recurring patterns that might point to a deeper architectural issue rather than a series of unrelated one-off problems.
This role is based at MIHAN, Nagpur, pin code 441108, five days a week on site. Pay runs up to ₹1,57,000 a month. The team hopes to fill this seat within six weeks.
