  • Work closely with global support teams on technical issues, installations, and recovery exercises.
  • Learn and utilise bespoke tools and automation frameworks.
  • Participate in process improvement initiatives, including automation of manual workflows and leveraging AI-assisted incident summarisation and predictive monitoring.
  • Contribute to knowledge-sharing sessions and continuous skill development.
