• Demonstrate end-to-end ownership of device procurement through third-party providers, managing complex logistical issues from initial order to final delivery and resolution.
• Manage and resolve incoming IT Service Desk (ITSD) tickets within Jira, ensuring timely response and end-to-end resolution.
• Actively contribute to strategic initiatives by progressing assigned tasks within the Jira project backlog, supporting the transition to a more proactive IT Operations model.
• Fulfill hardware and software provisioning requests, maintaining operational readiness for users across Turkey and other global locations.
• Serve as a primary technical and operational escalation point, providing mentorship and advanced resolution support to junior IT Operations team members.
• Lead critical lifecycle events by participating in IT Operations onboarding training for new hires and executing secure, IT-focused employee termination responsibilities.
• Support internal and external IT audit processes (e.g., SOC 2, PCI, and SOX) by coordinating and providing required documentation for access controls, ITSD ticketing, and quarterly software vendor compliance.

What We Look For

• Experience: Minimum 10 years
• Experience and comfort working on an agile team – an ideal candidate should be familiar with agile concepts, including Jira ticketing classification, pointing, and meeting workflows.
• Proven ability to operate with a high degree of autonomy and manage multiple priorities.
