The Incident Management Specialist is the primary guardian of our agent-facing technology stack. When agent tools fail, you are the first line of defense.

You will bridge the gap between frontline feedback and IT solutions, ensuring that widespread issues are sized, prioritized, and resolved with urgency.
Key Responsibilities:
Proactively monitor reporting channels to identify emerging tool issues; you must be able to "break it to fix it"-replicating reported issues to confirm validity
Quickly determine the scope of an issue to calculate impact
Initiate Fix Bridges and inform cross-functional stakeholders toward a real-time resolution
Manage the end-to-end lifecycle of both active and resolved incidents, ensuring no ticket is left stagnant and the status of every agent tool issue is accurately tracked and closed
Translate complex issues into clear, concise impact statements for leadership; maintain the definitive source of truth for all tool incidents, ensuring documentation is precise and accessible
Track long-term remediation items to ensure an issue doesn't reoccur

You are a disciplined self-starter who can juggle multiple incidents without losing track of the details
You can participate in bridge calls with authority and provide clear and concise information to IT regarding the issue as well and clear and concise information around fixes, workarounds, and issue updates to cross functional operational teams
