  • Proficiency in PowerShell, Python, and Bash, with a focus on systems automation and scripting best practices
  • Experience managing enterprise job scheduling systems (AppWorx or similar) with attention to reliability and maintainability
  • Hands-on experience experimenting with Agentic AI or RPA platforms to automate operational workflows is strongly preferred. Candidates should be able to describe proof-of-concept efforts or prototype use cases they've built, even if in non-production environments
  • Familiarity with system monitoring and alerting tools; ability to build custom checks and observability dashboards
  • Strong documentation habits and ability to model complex dependencies and recovery steps
  • Power BI administration experience, including gateway and refresh management
  • Bachelor's degree in IT, Computer Science, or related field
  • 3 5 years of experience in systems engineering, site reliability, or automation operations
  • ITSM / ITIL process understanding preferred; ServiceNow experience a plus
  • Key Attributes for Success :

  • Strong ownership mindset with a proactive approach to solving reliability issues
  • Eagerness to learn and experiment with new tools, frameworks, and techniques
  • Ability to thrive in a fast-paced environment with shifting priorities
  • Effective communicator who can translate technical findings into actionable plans
  • Focused on outcomes, not effort; continuously looking to simplify and improve
