• Establish change management and incident workflows using ITSM tools (e.g., ServiceNow, Remedy, Zendesk, ServiceDesk) to streamline and automate day-to-day operations.
• Enforce security and privileged access control measures across test, staging, and production environments.
• Identify and build process automation scripts (using tools such as Terraform, Ansible, or shell scripting) to reduce downtime and minimize human error.
• Develop operational manuals, standard operating procedures (SOPs), and service records to maintain thorough system documentation compliant with audit and governance standards.
• Coordinate operational support across team members and vendor partners, ensuring high-availability operations on a 24/7 basis.

• Familiarity with DevOps pipelines, agile methodologies, and automation tools (e.g., Terraform, Ansible).
