Job description

We are a premier financial institution seeking an ITSM Engineer to drive the administration, governance, and continuous improvement of our enterprise service management platforms. In our highly regulated environment, robust ITSM practices are not optional—they are foundational to operational resilience and audit readiness.

You will own the end-to-end ITSM toolchain—ServiceNow and PagerDuty—ensuring that Incident, Problem, Change, Request, and CMDB processes run efficiently and are continuously enhanced. You will work closely with infrastructure, application support, security, and business stakeholders to translate operational needs into platform configurations and process improvements.

Critically, you will act as the internal technical authority, providing clear direction to our external vendors and system integrators. You will not simply relay messages; you will review, challenge, and validate their deliverables, ensuring every change aligns with our architecture, security, and compliance standards before it reaches production.
