  • Strong experience in Incident and Problem Management with the ability to lead high-pressure service restoration efforts.
  • Solid understanding of digital platforms, automation, observability and reliability principles.
  • Proven ability to influence and communicate with senior stakeholders during time-critical situations.

  • Familiarity with cloud platforms such as AWS, Azure or GCP.
  • Scripting or automation skills (e.g., shell, Python, Puppet) are highly valued.

You'll thrive in this role if
