Desirable

• We are seeking a motivated and service-minded DevOps Support Specialist to join our team as the first line of support for our DevOps infrastructure and tooling
• As a DevOps Support Specialist at Divergent Technologies Inc, you will triage all incoming IT help desk tickets, resolve or route requests specific to our DevOps platforms, and partner with business teams to keep them productive and unblocked
• You will also own and maintain our How-To pages in Confluence, ensuring self-service knowledge stays accurate, discoverable, and easy to follow
• This role sits at the intersection of support and engineering and is an excellent path toward a deeper DevOps or platform engineering career
• Serve as the first point of contact for the IT help desk: monitor, triage, and prioritize all incoming tickets by urgency and business impact, and route complex issues to the appropriate engineering or platform team
• Respond to and resolve support requests specific to DevOps infrastructure and tooling, including CI/CD pipelines, source control, build and artifact repositories, containers, cloud environments, and monitoring platforms
• Provide hands-on support to business and engineering teams, helping them navigate DevOps tools, access requests, and established processes so they can stay productive

• Manage access and provisioning requests for DevOps platforms in accordance with established security, licensing, and change-management practices
• Document issues, root causes, and resolutions in the ticketing system so that knowledge is captured rather than re-solved
• Identify recurring ticket patterns and drive them down through improved documentation, self-service tooling, or automation, partnering with DevOps engineers where deeper changes are required
• Assist with routine operational tasks such as build agent health checks, pipeline reruns, license and account audits, and environment cleanup
• Escalate and help coordinate response during outages or incidents affecting DevOps tooling, communicating status clearly to affected teams
• Continuously build knowledge of our platforms and of industry DevOps practices and bring improvement ideas back to the team
