  • Develop and maintain tools, scripts, and workflows for monitoring, alerting, log analysis, and self-healing capabilities.
  • Support and enhance contact center platforms and integrations, including call routing, IVR, and workforce management-related services.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams during releases, incidents, and continuous improvement initiatives to strengthen system reliability and operational effectiveness.

What you will bring:

  • 5+ years of experience in Application Support, Production Support, L2 Support, Site Reliability Engineering, or similar roles.
  • Strong scripting or programming skills using Python, Java, Shell, or comparable technologies.
  • Experience building, maintaining, or enhancing automation frameworks and operational tooling.
  • Hands-on experience working with REST APIs, integration-based systems, and batch processing environments.
  • Experience using monitoring, observability, and alerting tools to support high-availability systems.
  • Strong troubleshooting, communication, and documentation skills, with the ability to work effectively across technical and business teams.
  • Experience supporting contact center technologies such as Genesys Cloud, IVR systems, ACD routing, call flows, or workforce management integrations is highly desirable. Exposure to AI-powered tools, cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure), CI/CD practices, DevOps methodologies, databases, and performance analysis is a plus.

Additional Information:
