This is a hands-on, customer-facing role where no two projects look the same — one day you might be deploying a new solution, the next solving a critical issue or advising clients on best practices. If you're proactive, resourceful, and confident in front of customers, you'll thrive here.

• Provide service and support at levels 1/2/3 as needed.
• Collaborate closely with Project Managers, Business Analysts, Presales, Sales, and R&D teams.
• Participate in pre-sales activities, including RFP responses and proof-of-concept exercises.

What we're looking for:

• Strong IT/software implementation skills with hands-on experience.
• Expertise in Linux and scripting languages such as Python, PySpark, and Bash.

• Excellent communication skills; able to explain technical concepts to non-technical audiences.
• Customer-facing or consulting experience (minimum 2 years) and experience handling complex or ad hoc challenges.
• Finance, banking, or related background is advantageous.
• Fluent English; other languages a plus.

As part of your application, we will ask you to answer a few short questions about your experience with customer projects, scripting, databases, and fintech. This helps us get to know you better and ensures a good match.
