Serve as the primary escalation point for critical incidents, maintaining effective communication across all levels of leadership.
Identify recurring process gaps and lead continuous improvement initiatives to strengthen the incident management framework.
Partner with Problem Management to ensure major incidents are handed off cleanly for long-term remediation tracking.
Maintain consistent adherence to SLAs, KPIs, and ITIL best practices across the team.
Build and deliver high-quality post-incident reports, trend analysis, and dashboards for senior leadership review.
Support audits and compliance reviews by maintaining accurate incident records and documentation.
Required Qualifications & Experience
Bachelor s degree in information technology, Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent practical experience.
7+ years of experience in Incident Management, with 2+ years in a managerial or team lead capacity preferably within Telecom, ISP, or large-scale technology operations.
Proven experience leading high-severity ('Sev 1/Sev 2') incident bridges with senior executives and technical teams.
Strong complex problem-solving and analytical skills, with the ability to drive rapid resolution in high-pressure, ambiguous situations.
Demonstrated ability to quickly learn and navigate new technology stacks and complex, multi-vendor ecosystems.
Hands-on experience writing SQL queries and performing log analysis using ELK Stack or OpenSearch.
Working knowledge of core networking and telecom concepts (e.g., OSS/BSS, network provisioning, connectivity/latency troubleshooting).
Hands-on experience supporting production workloads on AWS.
Excellent leadership, verbal, and written communication skills, with proven stakeholder management at the executive level.
