Responsibilities

  • Develop, coach, and organize the Real Time Monitoring & Incident Management team, structuring roles, sustainable rotations, and on-call coverage while cultivating a culture of accountability and rigor.

  • Architect and steer the monitoring strategy across applications, cloud infrastructure, network, data flows, APIs, and business-critical payment transactions.

  • Oversee payment and security incident management, classification, and reporting in strict compliance with the Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA).
  • Champion ITIL standards by delivering high-quality root cause analyses and post-mortems, tracking remediation actions to completion to prevent recurrence.
  • Optimize alerting thresholds to eliminate noise, automate operational workflows, and integrate monitoring services into the service catalogue.

  • Proven ability to thrive in a remote-first, multicultural European environment.
  • Proven composure and track record managing critical P1/P2 incidents under pressure, including out-of-hours escalations and executive stakeholder communication.
  • In-depth experience designing alert thresholds and monitoring complex distributed environments (cloud micro-services, networks, APIs, schedulers).
  • Practical expertise running blameless post-mortems, driving corrective actions, and establishing operational KPIs.
