This role will be responsible for managing incident documentation (including RCAs), ensuring data integrity, tracking platform-wide initiatives, and enforcing our critical vendor management process. You will collaborate with engineering, product, and operations teams to drive accountability, documentation quality, and process improvements.

  • Facilitate timely and accurate completion of incident documentation across internal teams;
  • Ensure incident data fidelity by aligning with engineering and product teams on standards and quality;
  • Maintain and enhance incident templates, workflows, and reporting tools.

Cross-Functional Initiative Tracking

  • Track cross-product and cross-functional engineering initiatives that arise from incidents;
  • Collaborate with team leads and stakeholders to define ownership, timelines, and key milestones for follow-ups;
  • Monitor progress of remediations and ensure closure of post-incident action items.

Core Platform & Strategic Initiatives Support

  • Maintain a centralized view of Core Platform Initiatives across Product and Engineering;
  • Track initiative status, dependencies, and risks to support executive and cross-team visibility;
  • Ensure alignment with broader strategic objectives and timelines.

Critical Vendor Management

  • Maintain and enforce the existing Critical Vendors list and associated management processes;
  • Partner with stakeholders to ensure vendors meet compliance, performance, and documentation standards;
  • Continuously improve process documentation related to vendor oversight and governance.

Qualifications:

  • 2–5 years of experience in technical operations, incident management, technical program management, or a related field;
  • Familiarity with incident response processes, root cause analysis methodologies, and operational documentation;
  • Strong organizational skills and attention to detail; ability to manage multiple workstreams simultaneously;
  • Proficient with tools such as Jira, Confluence, Google Workspace, and project tracking systems;
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills; capable of working across teams and influencing outcomes without direct authority.

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Experience with SRE or DevOps practices and managing operational processes in a fast-paced tech environment;
  • Understanding of vendor risk management or third-party compliance;
  • ITIL training is a plus;
  • Background in platform engineering, infrastructure, or large-scale technical systems is a plus.

What You'll Bring:

  • A process-driven mindset and a passion for clarity and quality in documentation;
  • Strong focus on high-fidelity data to support informed decisions by senior leadership;
  • A collaborative spirit and the ability to coordinate across multiple teams and functions;
  • A proactive approach to identifying and solving systemic issues;
  • A high degree of ownership and accountability.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
