How you’ll make an impact:


  • Own Level 2 incidents from diagnosis through resolution and root cause analysis. Business‑critical services recover quickly and repeat issues are reduced.

  • Troubleshoot issues across Salesforce, MuleSoft APIs, GoAnywhere MFT workflows and Genesys contact flows. Cross‑platform failures are understood and resolved with clear technical evidence.

  • Use logs, transaction traces, API payloads and Sumo Logic dashboards to investigate failures and performance issues. The team can identify root causes across application, integration and data layers.

  • Manage incidents, problems, changes, defects and technical backlog items through ITSM tooling and Azure DevOps. Work is prioritised by business impact and progressed in line with service expectations.

  • Monitor platform health, integrations, batch jobs, APIs and contact centre services, identifying recurring risks and opportunities to automate. Services become more resilient, observable and efficient to support.

  • Act as a subject matter expert, creating runbooks, sharing knowledge and coaching colleagues. Capability grows across the team and single points of failure are reduced.


Why this role matters:

Reliable applications and integrations are essential to the services our customers and colleagues use every day. This role helps protect the stability, availability and performance of platforms including Salesforce, Genesys, GoAnywhere, MuleSoft and Sumo Logic.


You’ll work closely with Application Support, Engineering, Development, project teams, business operations, contact centre stakeholders and third‑party suppliers, seeing how your technical expertise contributes to faster recovery, reduced downtime and more resilient services.


Our Application Support approach:


  • Customer and service focus – We prioritise work according to business impact, risk and the customer experience.

  • Evidence‑led investigation – We use logs, payloads, traces and monitoring data to diagnose issues thoroughly.

  • Shared ownership – We collaborate across support, engineering, project and operational teams from diagnosis to resolution.

  • Continuous improvement – We address root causes, automate manual activity and improve the resilience of services.

  • Knowledge sharing – We create clear runbooks, coach colleagues and build capability across the team.


Technology stack:


  • Core platforms – Salesforce

  • Core platforms – MuleSoft and REST/SOAP APIs

  • Core platforms – GoAnywhere MFT/SFTP

  • Core platforms – Genesys contact centre services

  • Core platforms – Integrated and asynchronous processing

  • Support and delivery tooling – Azure DevOps and ITSM tooling

  • Support and delivery tooling – JSON, XML, payloads and log structures

  • Support and delivery tooling – Runbooks, data‑flow mappings and recovery procedures

  • Support and delivery tooling – Defect, release and problem management


Essential experience


  • Experience in Application Support, Integration Support or a similar technical role. Hands‑on experience supporting business‑critical production systems and integrated enterprise platforms.

  • Strong troubleshooting skills across applications, APIs, integrations, file transfers, logs and monitoring tools.

  • Experience of incident and problem management, root cause analysis and defect tracking in production environments.

  • Ability to prioritise concurrent issues by business impact and communicate clear diagnostics to engineering teams.


Useful, but not essential


  • Practical experience with one or more of Salesforce, MuleSoft, GoAnywhere, Genesys or Sumo Logic.

  • Working knowledge of REST/SOAP, JSON, XML, API payloads, asynchronous processing and system dependencies.

  • Experience using Azure DevOps for defect lifecycle management, backlog tracking or release coordination.

  • Experience creating operational runbooks, coaching colleagues or acting as a subject matter expert.


Career development:

You’ll have opportunities to deepen your expertise across enterprise applications and integrations, become a subject matter expert in a core technology pillar, lead service improvement activity and build your capability through coaching, knowledge sharing and hands‑on problem solving.
