  • Manage assigned incident/problem/change queues to ensure timely updates, accurate categorization, and high‑quality resolution/closure notes
  • Communicate clearly during service disruptions and contribute to post‑incident reviews and corrective actions.
  • Improve monitoring, observability, and alert quality to enable early issue detection and reduce noise.
  • Identify and implement automation (e.g., scripting, Power Automate, AWS‑based tooling) to reduce manual effort and improve reliability.
  • Apply data‑driven and AI‑assisted tools (e.g., dashboards, Copilot, Amazon Q) to enhance incident analysis, reporting, and follow‑up tracking.
  • Maintain accurate runbooks, escalation procedures, and operational documentation.
  • Follow change, release, and readiness processes to minimize operational risk.
  • Identify and track operational risks and participate in Disaster Recovery planning, testing, and remediation.
  • Support application upgrades, releases, and production deployments, including validation in lower environments.
  • Regularly engage with business users to provide practical input that helps improve how technology and support work.
  • Contribute to knowledge sharing, mentoring, and continuous improvement initiatives.

  • Proactive, improvement-focused approach with strong collaboration skills.
  • Customer-focused mindset with a commitment to service quality.

  • Understanding of FIX protocol and market connectivity.
  • Experience with cloud or hybrid environments, particularly AWS, including Disaster Recovery concepts.
  • Experience participating in Disaster Recovery testing and production handovers.

  • 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.
