1. Core Technical Skills: Strong SQL is critical , with approximately 80% Oracle and 20% MS SQL Server in the CSP environment. Candidates should be comfortable querying databases and investigating data-related production issues.
2. Troubleshooting Skills: This is a hands‑on support role. Candidates should be able to investigate logs, databases, XML files, APIs, and middleware and identify root causes/workarounds rather than simply forwarding incidents to another team.
3. Tools & Technology: Candidates should have familiarity with AWS/ECS, Unix/Linux commands, Splunk, CloudWatch, and Dynatrace/APM. Basic Unix knowledge is sufficient; advanced infrastructure/DevOps skills are not required. Java application‑support experience is a plus.
4. ITIL & Incident Management: Strong ITIL knowledge is very important, particularly Incident Management, Change Management, Major Incident Management, escalation procedures, ServiceNow, and CMDB. Major Incident/Command Center experience is a strong plus.
5. Incident Ownership & Compliance: The team handles approximately 2,000 incidents annually and operates as L1/L2, with Development as L3. Although around 90% are P4 incidents , they are treated seriously due to downstream dependencies and SLA impact. Candidates must have strong ownership, communication, documentation, and escalation skills. The environment is regulated, so traceability and proper documentation are required for SOC 1/SOC 2 audits.
