Summary

A client of Innova Solutions is immediately hiring for a Incident Manager
 
Position type: Full-Time Contract (W2)
Role: Incident Manager
Duration: 6+ Months Contract
Location : Cincinnati, OH (work from office 5 days a week)

We are looking for an Incident Manager to stand up dedicated Major Incident command for our Point of Sale (POS) solution. This role creates a single accountable owner for P1/P2 command, evidence-based PIR/RCA governance, and executive-ready incident reporting — raising the bar from adhoc escalation handling to a mature, ServiceNow-driven Major Incident Management (MIM) practice.

Required Skills & Experience
• 10+ years leading enterprise Major Incident Management (P1/P2) triage, escalation, war rooms, executive communications, and service restoration
• Demonstrated experience building or maturing ITSM programs (Incident, Major Incident, Problem, Change) using ServiceNow, including severity models, PIR/RCA cadence, and KPI dashboards
• Track record leading 24x7 IT Ops/NOC-ITOC operating models and coordinating across infrastructure, application, network, security, and vendor teams
• Strong root cause analysis skills, with a structured, evidence-based approach to problem-solving
• Comfortable working with ticketing/ITSM tools (ServiceNow, JIRA) and log/monitoring platforms (Kibana, Splunk, Grafana, Dynatrace)
• Proven ability to translate technical incident data into business-impact reporting for MBR/QBR and C-suite audiences
• Willingness and availability to work weekends/holidays as part of a team roster/rotation
• Ability to work under pressure during live incidents while maintaining a calm, methodical approach

Key Responsibilities
• Serve as enterprise incident commander for P1/P2 incidents — leading triage, war-room coordination, decision facilitation, and stakeholder communications across Application Support, Platforms/Infrastructure Ops, SRE/Observability, Engineering, and business teams
• Own and mature the Major Incident Management practice: severity models, escalation protocols, war-room procedures, communication templates, and PIR/RCA cadence within ServiceNow
• Lead evidence-based Post-Incident Reviews (PIRs), requiring incident timelines, monitoring data, deployment history, root cause findings, and measurable corrective-action plans before review meetings
• Operationalize Problem Management by linking PIR outcomes to ServiceNow/JIRA records with named owners, due dates, and closure evidence; track overdue reliability work for leadership visibility
• Design and deliver MIM KPI reporting — MTTR, SLA compliance, change success, recurrence trends, and escalation drivers — translating incident performance into business-impact reporting for MBR/QBR and executive audiences
• Partner with SRE/Observability to improve alert correlation, noise reduction, and early detection of customer-impacting degradation
• Improve critical service readiness by validating ownership, dependencies, escalation contacts, and support models for high-impact services
• Participate in the team's weekend and holiday on-call roster and be available for after-hours Major Incident bridges as part of a rotating schedule

Preferred / Added Advantage
• Prior subject-matter knowledge of Point of Sale (POS) systems or retail/store operations environments
• Experience in retail or omni-channel commerce environments, including store systems, eCommerce, or supply chain
• Exposure to cloud platforms and containerized/microservices architectures
• ITIL Foundation certification or equivalent exposure to incident/problem management practices
