  • Maintain professional, clear, and timely communication during outages and other high-impact incidents.
  • Serve as an operational interface between Exacta and Churchill Downs Incorporated IT teams, including NOC, Infrastructure, Development, Information Security, System Services, and other technical groups.
  • Escalate incidents appropriately based on severity, customer impact, technical complexity, and established procedures.
  • Maintain effective working relationships with customers, vendors, Field Operations, Engineering, and other internal teams.
  • Identify recurring issues, operational trends, and opportunities to improve monitoring, troubleshooting, documentation, and incident response.
  • Maintain current knowledge of Exacta systems, network environments, infrastructure, and gaming applications relevant to NOC responsibilities.
