This is a hybrid role (2–3 days per week in office) where you’ll play a critical role in delivering world-class support for our capital markets platform, coordinating global shift schedules to ensure seamless 24/7 support coverage that meets both operational, scheduling and legal requirements across countries.

What You'll Do:

  • Coordinate international shift schedules and on-call rotations across time zones to ensure 24/7 support for clients

  • Ensure timely escalation and resolution of technical issues affecting trading infrastructure.

  • Oversee production investigations, analyze performance data and logs, and drive root cause analysis.

  • Act as the senior escalation point for complex issues.

  • Collaborate closely with DevOps, Engineering, and QA teams to continuously improve support operations.

  • Define, document, and optimize support processes and knowledge base materials.

  • Monitor KPIs and SLAs, and drive process improvements from client and internal feedback.

What You Bring:

  • 5+ years of experience in technical support or incident management, ideally in FinTech or SaaS.

  • Engineering or Computer Science background – you’re comfortable with logs, SQL, and Linux terminals.

  • Proven leadership experience managing support teams in fast-paced environments.

  • Excellent interpersonal and cross-cultural communication skills—you’ll coordinate with stakeholders globally.

  • Experience with support tools such as Jira, Zendesk, and ITSM practices.

  • Ability to operate under pressure and handle high-stakes client issues with confidence.

Nice to Have:

  • Experience in capital markets, electronic trading systems, or finance.

  • Familiarity with FIX protocol, post-trade processes, cloud environments, and containerization (Docker/Kubernetes).

  • Arabic, Turkish or second language proficiency is a plus, but not required.

This is more than just a support role—it’s a leadership opportunity in a mission-critical domain. If you're driven by complex problem-solving, thrive in a global environment, and want to make a visible impact in the financial tech space, we want to meet you.
