  • Monitor production system performance metrics, investigate anomalies, perform root cause analysis, and recommend corrective actions.
  • Collaborate with DevOps, CloudOps, developers, and support teams to resolve technical issues and clarify implementation requirements.
  • Manage vendor relationships and track hardware and software issues through resolution.
  • Follow ITIL-aligned incident, change, and problem management processes.
  • Provide initial incident response, follow-up coordination, and root cause reporting.
  • Administer access and security controls across supported applications and environments.
  • Manage service requests involving domains, DNS configuration, SSL certificates, and URL redirects.
  • Support production service levels and SLAs while participating in a rotational on-call schedule.
  • Maintain technical documentation, troubleshooting notes, user guides, and client-facing support materials.
  • Deliver cross-training and technical knowledge transfer to other team members.
  • Contribute to media technology projects that introduce new capabilities and enhance existing business functionality.
  • Support mobile applications and investigate issues affecting devices and platforms such as iPad, iPhone, and Android.

  • Strong experience using Confluence and Jira in technical support environments.
  • Experience supporting radio or television broadcast applications, deskside support, or other media technology functions.
  • A solid understanding of DNS management and SSL certificates.
  • Familiarity with ITIL processes, including incident management, change management, and problem management.
  • Ability to troubleshoot network, application, and system issues using logs, monitoring tools, and structured root cause analysis.
  • Experience monitoring production environments and resolving technical incidents against defined service levels.
  • Ability to coordinate with engineering, operations, development, and external vendor teams.
  • Experience managing application access, domains, URL redirects, and security-related service requests.
  • Ability to work independently while coordinating with a team across multiple simultaneous support tasks.
  • Willingness to participate in a rotational on-call schedule.
