Its newly launched strategic GCC IT captive unit in India serves as the core technology hub—engineering next-generation supply chain platforms, cloud systems, and data analytics with direct global impact. Employment Type: Full-Time

Location:
Mysore, India

Job Description
• Lead a structured knowledge-capture effort in your first weeks: batch job inventory, pipeline dependencies, runbooks, known workarounds, failure history, and escalation contacts — documented in Forward Air-owned locations and verified by the US team.
• Run daily triage of production issues, batch failures, and incoming requests, keeping every open item assigned, prioritized, and current in Azure DevOps.
• Plan and track enhancements and projects across sprints or Kanban flow; manage scope, dependencies, and dates with business owners and the US team.
• Coordinate transitions as new engineers join: shadowing plans, handoff checklists, and readiness checks before work changes hands.
• Act as the single front door for questions to US engineers — batching and routing them so the US team can review and unblock without being interrupted continuously.
• Enforce work-item hygiene and the team's QA and production checklists, including business logic validation,



not only data-movement checks.
• Produce a concise weekly scorecard: open production items, aging items, deliveries, risks, and transition status.
• Identify delivery risks early and escalate with options, not just problems Requirements
• Strong working knowledge of Azure DevOps boards, backlogs, queries, and dashboards.
• Ability to read and understand data pipelines, SQL, and job dependencies well enough to challenge estimates and spot gaps — you do not need to code daily.
• Track record of producing transparent operational documentation and runbooks.
• Experience running production support or incident triage alongside project delivery.
