• Experience using Jira and ServiceNow to track remediation tickets, manage aging and SLAs, and report status.
• Demonstrated ability to coordinate technical remediation efforts across multiple teams and technology layers.
• Excellent communication, organizational, stakeholder management, and problem-solving skills.
• Ability to balance remediation governance and reporting responsibilities with hands-on development and testing.

Preferred Qualifications
