ServiceNow Technical Support Specialist -- NYC -- 6+ MONTHS

Hi,

Please review the following requirement and let me know if you have any 

consultants.

 

THE CONSULTANT MUST BE GC OR CITIZEN AND SHOULD BE LOCAL TO NY/NJ.

Location: NYC

Duration: 6+ Months

Description:

• Monitor the Service Now (GSC) ticket queue for incoming incidents and requests and resolve or escalate these tickets
• Monitor the Zenoss Monitoring and Alerting Dashboard and apply Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) to respond to alerts/warnings and fix them
• Identify reporting alert trends or non-actionable alerts
• Escalate to 3rd level support team as directed
• Monitor BSM (synthetic transactions) to confirm a "green"state for applications
• Participate in bridge calls as needed to help resolve system outages and restore services to users and Guardian partners
• Update the GSC cases he/she takes with notes on the progress and resolution of the case
• Create Knowledgebase entries to educate and help coworkers as directed by senior members of the team
• Suggest defects and product/infrastructure enhancements to improve stability
• Perform Incident and Problem management based on ITIL principles

We are extremely focused on understanding ultimate root cause for any incidents/alerts we manage.  We believe in using incidents as a catalyst for continuous improvement.  The successful candidate will report to an EOC Lead who will monitor performance and provide guidance as needed.  This Lead will be the focal point for daily issues regarding actual support tasks.  If the Lead is unavailable, alternate escalation guidance will be suggested.

 

Work Hours:

8 hours per day, 5 days per week, or 12 hours per day 3 days per week depending on our needs.  The shifts can vary across a 24-hour clock.  Shifts may be changed every four months to vary work days.  The EOC is open 7 days per week and requires on-site coverage 24/7.  Candidates should be available to start working as soon as possible.  After a period of training and familiarization with our tools and processes, we may allow alterations to work schedules, provided our coverage needs are met.

 

There is a possibility of travel within the continental United States for training purposes.  The candidate must be willing to travel and able to travel.  The trips may be up to two times per year for up to several days per visit (but probably far less).

• Citrix skills including familiarity with Director Console and Studio Console

• Excellent written and spoken English language skills with an ability to speak loudly and clearly
• Excellent client-service skills (communication, ownership, follow-up, etc.)
• A "get things done" attitude with a willingness to speak up and give opinions, answers and guidance without, necessarily, being specificaly asked to do so
• Ability to explain difficult concepts in clear, easily understood terms
• Experience providing support on infrastructure as opposed to "how to" questions on applications
