I think you'd need to be certified to work on AIX!

Back in the good old days there were several exams to be taken to achieve CATE (Certified AIX Technical Expert), including hardware (i had SP/2 as one of these tests for instance), AIX core themes like backup, tuning, troubleshooting, etc., and middleware: HACMP, ADSM, etc.

Today there are only 4 tests to be passed: pSeries Administration and Support (Test 222), pSeries Enterprise Support (Test 180) - these two have to be passed in exactly this order for reasons unknown - pSeries HACMP for AIX (Test 237), and IBM System p5 Virtualization Technical Support (Test 062).

Back in the good old days of the R/6000 the tests were real tests: you got questions and a piece of paper and had to write down your answer, which often included writing a small script or a part of one. Today there are only these multiple-choice-tests, where you can guess the right answer most of the times even if you don't know anything about the topic. Suffice it to say i haven't bothered to renew my certification as a CATE but let it drop.
