Who are we
Fulcrum Digital is an agile and nextgeneration digital accelerating company providing digital transformation and technology services right from ideation to implementation. These services have applicability across a variety of industries including banking & financial services insurance retail higher education food healthcare and manufacturing.

• Engage in and improve the whole lifecycle of services from inception and design through deployment operation and refinement.
  
• Analyse ITSM activities of the platform and provide feedback loop to development teams on operational gaps or resiliency concerns
  
• Support services before they go live through activities such as system design consulting capacity planning and launch reviews.
  
• Maintain services once they are live by measuring and monitoring availability latency and overall system health with automated alerts.
  
• Scale systems sustainably through mechanisms like automation and evolve systems by pushing for changes that improve reliability and velocity.
  
• Practice sustainable incident response and detailed postmortems.
  
• Take a holistic approach to problem solving by connecting the dots during a production event thru the various technology stack that makes up the platform to optimize mean time to recover
  
• Work with a global team spread across tech hubs in multiple geographies and time zones
  
• Share knowledge and mentor junior resources
  
  Qualifications
