Job Description

Company Description
Technology is our how. And people are our why. For over two decades, we have been harnessing technology to drive meaningful change.
By combining world-class engineering, industry expertise and a people-centric mindset, we consult and partner with leading brands from various industries to create dynamic platforms and intelligent digital experiences that drive innovation and transform businesses.
From prototype to real-world impact - be part of a global shift by doing work that matters.

Key responsibilities (combined L2/L3)
Incident management and restoration (L2-led, L3 support)

• Own incidents/requests assigned via ServiceNow.
• Triage with structure: impact, scope, priority, user journey breakpoint.
• Investigate using logs/metrics/traces and correlation identifiers.
• Apply approved recovery actions (safe reprocess/retry where documented).
• Identify ownership (Mercury vs dependency) and route correctly.
• Provide clear updates: impact, actions, evidence-based ETAs.
• Escalate with a complete diagnostic pack (timeline, evidence, repro, what's ruled out).

Deep investigation, RCA, and permanent fix (L3-led)

• Perform engineering-level analysis across code/config/data/environment/dependencies.
• Reproduce issues using lower environments where feasible.
• Produce RCAs with prevention actions (detection gaps, fixes, safeguards).
• Drive permanent remediation: code/config/data fixes and controlled hotfixes.
• Improve resilience: timeouts, retries/backoff, idempotency, DLQ handling, circuit-breaker style protections.
• Reduce operational toil through automation and better tooling.

Observability, change, and operational readiness (L2 + L3)

• Operate and improve monitoring and alert playbooks across CloudWatch, Splunk, New Relic.
• Improve alert quality (reduce noise, tune thresholds, add actionable signals).
• Support releases/changes: risk review, rollback/validation readiness, early-life monitoring, post-release checks.
• Support backup/recovery understanding and restore verification (DynamoDB/Aurora via AWS managed backups).
• Maintain runbooks/known errors/FAQs and create fast-diagnosis assets (queries, dashboards, checklists).
• Coordinate with Product Owners, Tech Leads, and dependent teams during incidents.

Qualifications
Required technical skills (must have)

• Proven L2/L3 production support experience.
• Strong troubleshooting using logs/metrics/traces.
• Strong ServiceNow incident ownership and discipline.
• AWS operational knowledge: Lambda (timeouts/retries/concurrency), DynamoDB (throttling/latency/capacity), Aurora PostgreSQL (connections/slow queries/failover awareness).
• Strong API troubleshooting: HTTP, REST/GraphQL basics, JSON, auth/token patterns.
• Clear communication under pressure to business and technical audiences.

Preferred / nice to have

• Node.js debugging and production engineering.
• APM + distributed tracing experience.
• Event/onsite constraints support (device/browser variability, offline/edge).
• Reliability automation/tooling experience.
• Change governance and release engineering exposure.
