You will play a key role in supporting application production activities, managing technical incidents, coordinating releases, monitoring batch processes, and contributing to the optimization of technical and functional application components.

  • Coordinate software deployments, migrations, and releases across multiple environments.

  • Execute environment management activities, including opening/closing environments, data refreshes, file recoveries, and production support tasks.

  • Maintain and enrich application documentation, operating procedures, and knowledge repositories.

  • Manage functional change requests and contribute to process improvements and automation initiatives.

  • Collaborate with infrastructure, production, planning, and database teams to ensure smooth application operations.

  • Perform technical integration activities and support application lifecycle management.

  • Monitor service quality proactively and implement preventive measures to improve user experience.


Your Key Skills

  • Strong expertise in Application Production Support and IT Operations.

  • Solid experience in Mainframe environments and production monitoring activities.

  • Ability to analyze incidents, troubleshoot technical issues, and identify root causes.

  • Experience coordinating releases, deployments, migrations, and environment management activities.

  • Strong communication skills with the ability to work effectively in multicultural and global teams.

  • Proactive mindset with a strong focus on continuous improvement and service quality.

  • High level of autonomy, ownership, and attention to detail.

  • Good understanding of SDLC processes and application lifecycle management.


Your Main Qualifications

  • Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, Engineering, or a related field.

  • Minimum of 6 years of professional experience in technical support, application support, or production support environments.

  • Experience working within the banking or financial services sector is considered a plus.

  • Prior experience in technical analysis and application support environments.

  • Strong knowledge of Mainframe IBM z/OS, TSO, COBOL, CICS, JCL, SPUFI, SQL, Scheduler OPC, and DB2.

  • Experience with UNIX Shell Scripting and SQL/Oracle environments.

  • Familiarity with file transfer protocols such as FTP, SFTP, MQ, and CFT.
