What You'll Do

• Implement and support enterprise systems, applications, infrastructure services, databases, integrations, scheduled jobs, and data flows in accordance with approved technical, security, access-control, change-management, monitoring, backup, recovery, and IT service-management procedures.
• Monitor application, infrastructure, database, integration, and scheduled-job health; analyze alerts, logs, job results, and system metrics to identify faults, performance degradation, capacity concerns, and operational risks. Use enterprise schedulers such as Tidal, AutoSys, Control-M, or comparable tools.
• Triage and resolve production incidents through first- and second-level troubleshooting, including evidence gathering, ticket updates, escalation, stakeholder communications, closure documentation, and major-incident support.

• Administer user and service-account access, role assignments, permissions, authentication integrations, privileged-access processes, periodic access reviews, security controls, configuration, patching, and environment readiness.
• Use SQL to validate data, investigate issues, support data loads, and resolve data-quality or data-flow failures. Support ETL, data pipelines, batch processing, file transfers, REST APIs, JSON/XML exchanges, middleware, integration monitoring, and interface debugging.
• Support system implementations, releases, infrastructure changes, upgrades, migrations, deployments, integrations, environment onboarding, and production transition activities. Validate prerequisites, implementation results, post-change outputs, and rollback concerns.
• Support high-availability, business-continuity, and disaster-recovery readiness, including backup checks, recovery procedures, recovery testing, and continuity documentation.
• Maintain runbooks, knowledge articles, support procedures, configuration and dependency records, support matrices, operational checklists, recovery instructions, and other technical documentation.
• Work with application, database, integration, infrastructure, cloud, vendor, technology-partner, and business teams to resolve issues, clarify requirements, and complete assigned deliverables. Participate in knowledge transfer, peer reviews, service reviews, and continuous improvement.
• Track assigned work, incident trends, service-level performance, system health, and improvement opportunities; provide status updates and technical reports to stakeholders and support leadership.
• Use approved scripting, automation, monitoring, and workflow tools to improve repeatability, reliability, monitoring, and support efficiency; escalate unresolved issues, risks, dependencies, and service impacts through appropriate channels.
• Perform other related operational and technical duties as assigned.

• Basic understanding of Java or .NET applications, web services, and distributed-system concepts in a production-support environment.
• Strong written and verbal English communication skills, with the ability to explain technical issues, risks, recommendations, and status clearly to senior IT leaders, technology partners, business stakeholders, and technical and non-technical audiences.
• Willingness to work on night shift (8:00 PM to 5:00 AM PH).
