• Problem management: Identify patterns in support to identify problems, understand their impact, and work with software development. Liaise with the product team to prioritize fixes.
• Availability management: Measure the availability of our applications and report on them monthly.
• Property acquisition: Assist the acquisition team in enrolling new properties that Venterra acquires into our applications. Execute SQL queries and perform post‑acquisition data fixes.
• Documentation: Build out our internal knowledgebase about application operations and keep it updated.

CANDIDATE PROFILE
