Apply to Incident Support Engineer - Automotive Domain | W2 Only | On-site role.

Role Summary
We are seeking Support Engineer role for a 24/7 Incident Management (IM) operations program
supporting a key player in the automotive industry's connected car space. This role will primarily
focus on monitoring the system health using different data monitoring tools such as Datadog,
Grafana, MaxGauge, Elastic, Dynatrace. Once an anomaly or unusual pattern is observed,
escalate it to the respective teams, initiate an incident bridge, driving the bridge, taking incident
timeline, facilitate the teams to bring an ongoing incident to closure and ensuring adherence to
contractual SLAs. The IM Support Engineer will orchestrate end-to-end incident handling—from
anomaly detection to bridge initiation, stakeholder communications, resolution, and post-
incident governance—with a strong background in Telematics and Connected Vehicle systems
(including Remote Services).
Key Responsibilities
 Monitor the health and availability of production systems supporting the Connected Car /
Telematics ecosystem.
 Proactively monitor application, infrastructure, API, database, and service health using tools
such as:
 Datadog
 Grafana
 MaxGauge
 Application and system logs
 Organization-specific monitoring and observability tools
 Identify abnormal system behavior, performance degradation, errors, latency, service
failures, and potential outages.
 Analyze dashboards, alerts, metrics, logs, and application behavior to identify the initial
scope and impact of incidents.
 Perform proactive monitoring to identify issues before they impact customers.
 Validate alerts and distinguish between genuine production incidents and false
positives/noise.
 Adhere to the IM SLAs (MTTD, MTTA, MTTR, communication SLAs); ensure measurement,
reporting, and continuous improvement.
 Should be proficient in handling the incidents ranging from high priority ones (P1, P2) to the
low priority incidents (P3, P4).
 Initiate and run incident bridges/war rooms; coordinate cross-functional responders
(application, infrastructure, network, OEM partners, and third parties).

 Oversee proactive detection through data monitoring tools (Datadog, Dynatrace, Grafana,
MaxGauge) and ensure alert quality, runbooks, and signal-to-noise optimization.
 Establish and enforce SOPs for incident declaration, severity classification, response roles
and decision logs.
 Drive disciplined stakeholder communications: timely updates to product, operations,
OEM/customer contacts, leadership, and impacted regions; maintain comms cadence and
channels.
 Ensure post-incident governance: facilitate RCA, document contributing causes, corrective
and preventive actions (CAPA), and circulate the RCA across teams for sign-off.
 Define and maintain IM dashboards, KPIs, and executive reports; present weekly/monthly
service reviews with trend analysis and action plans.
 Collaborate with Product/Engineering to influence reliability roadmaps (resiliency patterns,
observability, capacity, release safeguards).
 Ensure compliance with information security, data privacy, and OEM contractual obligations
during incident handling and communications.
 Continuously refine IM playbooks, runbooks, and training; conduct simulations/game days
and readiness audits across onsite–offshore teams.
Domain Expertise: Telematics & Connected Car
 Hands-on knowledge of Telematics Control Unit (TCU), eSIM/OTA provisioning, backend
telematics platforms, and data flows between vehicle, cloud, and mobile apps.
 Understanding on Internet of Things including but not limited to Messaging Queues, bulk
provisioning, notification systems, API Gateways, Load Balancers, Mobile applications & web
applications.
 Familiarity with Remote Services (e.g., remote lock/unlock, start/stop, charge control,
climate pre-conditioning), geo-services, and safety/assist features.
 Understanding of service dependencies: identity/auth, messaging, device management, CAN
bus signals, firmware/OTA update orchestration, and regional compliance.
 Experience coordinating incidents across OEM partners, Tier-1 suppliers, cloud providers,
and customer support operations.
Required Qualifications
 5+ years in Operations/Service Management with 4+ years leading Incident Management in
large-scale, 24/7 environments.
 Demonstrated experience running bridges for P1/P0 incidents; proven incident commander
skills and decision-making under pressure.
 Strong background in Telematics/Connected Car domain and vehicle remote services
concepts.
 Proficiency with observability and monitoring tools: Dynatrace, Datadog, Grafana,
MaxGauge (dashboards, alerting, traces, logs).

 Expertise in IM processes: detection → triage → severity assignment → bridge initiation →
stakeholder updates → resolution → post-incident RCA.
 Working knowledge of ITIL practices (Incident, Problem, Change, Service Level
Management).
 Should have good hands on experience in using tools like JIRA, Confluence, Jenkins,
XMatters.
 Excellent communication (written/verbal), executive presence, and stakeholder
management across onsite–offshore teams.
 Ability to analyze telemetry and time-series data to drive root cause hypotheses and
corrective actions.
 Experience defining SLAs/SLOs and building KPI dashboards (MTTD/MTTA/MTTR, incident
volume, recurrence, comms SLA, customer impact).

Tools & Technologies
 Datadog, Dynatrace , Grafana, MaxGauge (APM, logs, metrics, dashboards).
 Incident & Comms: ticketing (Jira/ServiceNow), chat/bridge tools (Teams/Zoom), status
pages.
 Data: time-series analysis, log aggregation, tracing, alerting policies and noise reduction.
Education & Experience
 Bachelor’s degree in engineering, Computer Science, or related field (or equivalent practical
experience).
