- Ensure systems reliability on a 24x7x365 basis: our customer systems are critical and always on
- Work in close relationship with other team members to promote the best practices, runbooks and operational procedures
What you will need to succeed:

- Be ready to be part of team's 24x7 on-call shifts
- Excellent English skills
