About Netskrt

We are a highly motivated team dedicated to delivering products and services that improve customer experience when accessing internet video at the edge of the network.

The successful candidate will possess an outstanding record of professional experience and will thrive in an environment that demands accountability. You will be a key member of a team that understands the big picture perspective and instils a customer-first attitude.

Specific areas of responsibility include:

  1. Fault investigation and resolution as part of Major Incident/swarm teams to resolve technical faults within SLA
  2. In-depth troubleshooting of production issues to include occasionally joining live event bridges to troubleshoot with the Customer
  3. Develop and execute operational acceptance procedures for new edge solutions to ensure infrastructure is deployed to Production with zero service impact
  4. Investigate, deliver, and document solutions for reported issues
  5. Escalation of unresolved issues and liaison with US and Canada based Operations & Engineering teams
