• Investigate and resolve system issues with a focus on reliability and performance.
• Contribute to improvements in system automation, monitoring, and documentation.

About You

• Solid scripting and automation knowledge (e.g., Bash, Python, Ansible).
• Experience supporting or integrating SWIFT products such as PAGs, DMCs, HSMs is a strong advantage.
