Key Responsibilities

Perform alert triage, correlation, and initial impact assessment to separate actionable events from non-actionable noise.
Support major incident detection and escalation by validating symptoms, confirming affected services, and engaging resolver teams.
Use standard operating procedures, runbooks, and decision frameworks to investigate, prioritize, and escalate events.
Maintain situational awareness during active events; document event patterns and operational observations.
Promote events to incidents when thresholds are met; partner with internal and external teams during restoration activities.
Identify opportunities to improve monitoring effectiveness, event quality, automation, and operational readiness.

Partnership & Work Expectations

Collaborate with infrastructure, application, reliability engineering, service desk, and vendor teams to ensure effective event response and service restoration.
Support continuous improvement by identifying recurring alert issues, documenting operational insights, and recommending enhancements to monitoring, runbooks, and automation.

Schedule & Role Expectations

May require shift coverage, off-hours support, and escalation activities aligned to a 24x7 operational model and follow-the-sun support structure.

Required Qualifications

8+ years' experience in monitoring and observability tools such as Splunk, Dynatrace, ITSI, Moogsoft, ThousandEyes, or similar.
Experience in AI-driven data analysis and problem solving.
AI tool proficiency including prompt engineering and Interrogation skills
Familiarity with ITSM and ticketing platforms, including incident creation, categorization, escalation, and documentation.
Understanding of event correlation, alert prioritization, service impact analysis, and basic automation/workflow enablement.
Strong analytical thinking and operational judgment.
Ability to work under pressure during high-impact events.

Candidate must be authorized to work in the US without company sponsorship. The company will not support the STEM OPT I-983 Training Plan endorsement for this position.
