- Perform initial investigation and troubleshooting using monitoring data, logs, dashboards, and standard operating procedures.
- Monitor Kubernetes clusters, nodes, pods, containers, deployments, and services.
- Use basic SQL queries to retrieve and validate data during application or database-related incident investigations.
- Acknowledge, prioritize, and respond to alerts according to severity, business impact, and established response procedures.
- Create and update ServiceNow incident tickets with accurate technical details, observations, troubleshooting actions, and supporting evidence.
- Escalate unresolved or critical incidents to the appropriate support teams and coordinate follow-up activities.
- Maintain clear shift handovers covering active incidents, outstanding alerts, actions taken, and pending follow-ups.
