The Digital Applications & Infrastructure Operations team is seeking a Senior Technical System Analyst to drive operational excellence and automation across our enterprise digital applications portfolio. This role is critical to maintaining and optimizing our multi-cloud infrastructure supporting 13+ dependent applications. You will work at the intersection of DevOps, SRE, and application support, transforming manual processes into automated solutions while ensuring seamless day-to-day operations. This is an opportunity to make a significant impact by improving system reliability, reducing toil, and enabling development teams to deliver faster.

WHAT WILL YOU DO?

• Design and implement SRE solutions to automate manual maintenance processes, reducing operational toil and improving system reliability through infrastructure-as-code (Ansible, GitActions, UCD).

• Perform DevOps work supporting development and QE partners by managing CI/CD pipelines, deployment automation, and infrastructure provisioning across OCP, Azure, and on-premises environments.

• Manage day-to-day support tickets for various digital applications, troubleshoot issues across multiple technology stacks (MongoDB, Elastic, OCP), and drive first-contact resolution.

• Collaborate with development, QE, and product teams through regular technical calls to align architectural decisions, deployment strategies, and operational requirements.

• Coordinate with external vendors on technical issues, escalations, and support engagements; serve as technical liaison for third-party integrations and platform updates.

• Raise and manage change requests (CR/CAB process), participate in implementation work, and ensure compliance with enterprise change management protocols.

• Support on-call pager duty on a rotational basis, responding to production incidents and providing 24/7 operational support when required.

• Configure and maintain observability tools including Dynatrace RUM, PagerDuty alerts, Aternity monitoring, and Catchpoint synthetic scripting to ensure comprehensive system visibility and rapid incident detection.

WHAT DO YOU NEED TO SUCCEED?

Must have:

• 5+ years of experience in system administration, DevOps, or SRE roles with proven expertise in infrastructure automation and operational support.

• Strong hands-on experience with infrastructure orchestration tools (Ansible), CI/CD platforms (GitActions, UCD), and container platforms (OpenShift/Kubernetes).

• Demonstrated proficiency in at least one scripting language (Python, Bash, PowerShell) and SQL for troubleshooting and automation.

• Experience with multi-cloud environments (Azure, OCP) and monitoring/observability tools (Dynatrace, PagerDuty, or similar platforms).

• Excellent problem-solving skills with the ability to diagnose complex technical issues, work under pressure, and communicate clearly with technical and non-technical stakeholders.

Nice-to-have:

• Experience with NoSQL databases (MongoDB) and search platforms (Elasticsearch/Elastic) in production environments.

• Certification in cloud platforms (Azure, Kubernetes) or infrastructure-as-code tools.

• Experience with financial services or highly regulated industries.

• Knowledge of incident management and post-mortem processes (ITIL foundations preferred).

What’s in it for you?

We thrive on the challenge to be our best, progressive thinking to keep growing, and working together to deliver trusted advice to help our clients thrive and communities prosper. We care about each other, reaching our potential, making a difference to our communities, and achieving success that is mutual.
