Our vision is to reimagine the way people come together, from anywhere in the world, and on any device.

  • Build and maintain a product reliability framework of ongoing issues, troubleshooting steps, and connect with internal and external team's status.
  • Collaborate with other multi-functional teams to implement process improvements, resolve problems, triage trends, build knowledge and facilitate the steps required to eliminate future incidents.
  • Build and maintain processes for resolving technical platform issues to enable users to self help.

You Have:

  • 3+ years experience using data analysis and leveraging SQL or Python to problem solve and dashboard
  • Ability to multitask, prioritize tasks, handle pressure well in a fast-paced environment and work independently as well as collaboratively.
  • Strong written and verbal communication needed to present complex data to technical and non-technical stakeholders and executive critical issues
  • Must be willing to participate in on-call support for incident management issues
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, or a related field or equivalent work experience in operations incident management

  • Proactive Problem Solver: You anticipate potential problems and take proactive and significant action to solve them.
  • Team-oriented: You lift up your peers and find ways to make the team stronger.
