The Role
We are Addepar’s Technical Operations & Support team! We support and help implement Addepar’s cloud-based platform infrastructure, deployment tools, and internal systems. We are responsible for ensuring smooth operations during EMEA and APAC support hours. We play a key role in incident and critical issue response management and support, provide clear communications to executives and key partners, and collaborate with our colleagues to improve our internal processes.
We’re looking for a teammate with excellent problem-solving skills who is comfortable working under pressure, occasionally as a solo first responder.
What You’ll Do
Managing Incidents and Critical Issues
Uptime is our goal! Our team monitors our systems, acknowledging and taking action on business/service-impacting alerts and declared incidents. You’ll work with us to maintain 24x7 primary and secondary Incident Management coverage for production services. To do so, you will take shifts providing Primary or Secondary Incident Commander support, including managing conference calls and multi-team chat channels during incident response. You will collaborate with internal teams to design and improve incident triage processes and responses, including tracking, coordination, resource assignment, communications, and transitioning active incident responsibility to supporting product engineering teams.
Once the incident is resolved, you’ll drive us to improve by scheduling, coordinating, and facilitating post-incident activities, including Root Cause Analysis (RCA), Corrective and Preventive Action Plans (CAPA) and other Problem Management activities as needed. You’ll track and follow up on action items that arise, collecting data for our monthly metrics. Finally, you’ll help us deliver Incident Commander training and coaching for our engineers!

PHISHING SCAM WARNING: Addepar is among several companies recently made aware of a phishing scam involving con artists posing as hiring managers recruiting via email, text and social media. The imposters are creating misleading email accounts, conducting remote “interviews,” and making fake job offers in order to collect personal and financial information from unsuspecting individuals. Please be aware that no job offers will be made from Addepar without a formal interview process.
