# Frontier Command Center Lead (Service Operations Manager) **New Integrated Learning Center** · Greater Toronto Area, ON · `On-site` 🕒 **Статус:** *Опубликовано: вчера* · *Источник: Indeed* --- ### About the Role Frontier Command Center Lead (Managed Services Operations) AirGate Technologies Inc. Greater Toronto Area / Hybrid (YOU MUST BE LOCATED IN THE GTA TO BE ELIGIBLE FOR THIS ROLE AND YOU MUST BE ELIGIBLE TO WORK IN CANADA without sponsorship). About AirGate AirGate Technologies is a Canadian-owned Microsoft cloud, security, data and AI company helping organizations modernize how they operate, secure and scale. We work across Azure, Microsoft 365, Security, Data & AI, cloud infrastructure and managed services, supporting customers through transformation and into ongoing operations. As our managed services business continues to grow, we are building the next generation of our service operations capability: the AirGate Frontier Command Center . We are looking for an experienced service operations leader to help build it. The Opportunity The Frontier Command Center Lead is responsible for the operational performance of AirGate’s managed services and service desk function and will work with our teams to leverage AI to build and operate the Managed Services Operations function of the future today. This is not simply a traditional Service Desk Manager position . We are looking for someone who can build the operating model, establish discipline, improve processes, strengthen escalation and accountability, and help us create a modern managed services function built around cloud, automation, monitoring and AI. You will be responsible for ensuring that the operational machine works. You will not own every customer relationship, and you will not personally own every technical resource. Instead, you will operate across teams to ensure that incidents are being handled, commitments are being met, recurring problems are being addressed, processes are working and risks are escalated before they become larger issues. You should be comfortable saying: “This is not operationally ready.” “This process is not being followed.” “We keep seeing this issue. We need to address the root cause.” And then driving the organization toward resolution. What You Will Own Managed Services Operations You will oversee the day-to-day operational performance of AirGate’s managed services and service desk environment, including: - Service desk and managed services operations - Incident management and escalation - Major incident coordination - After-hours and overnight escalation processes - Monitoring, alerting and operational response - SLA and service-performance management - Queue management, aging and prioritization - Ticket quality and operational hygiene - Runbook adherence - Customer-impacting operational issues - Service readiness - Escalation governance - Operational reporting - Continuous service improvement Your responsibility is to ensure that issues have clear ownership and that nothing important falls through the cracks. Build the Frontier Command Center This is a builder role. You will help design and mature AirGate’s Frontier Command Center into a modern operational function supporting Azure, Microsoft Security, Microsoft 365, cloud infrastructure, networking, data and AI services. You will help establish: - Command-centre operating rhythms - Incident and escalation models - On-call and after-hours procedures - Monitoring and alert-management standards - Severity and priority frameworks - Major incident procedures - Escalation matrices - Service dashboards - Operational KPIs - Runbooks and standard operating procedures - Shift and coverage models - Knowledge-management practices - Automation opportunities - AI-assisted service operations - Proactive problem identification - Continuous-improvement programs We want someone who sees an operational gap and thinks: “There should be a process for this.” And then helps create one. Incident & Escalation Management You will ensure that incidents — particularly high-impact incidents — are managed with urgency, accountability and clear communication. This includes: - Establishing clear incident ownership - Coordinating technical resources during major incidents - Ensuring appropriate escalation occurs - Managing operational bridges and communications - Tracking actions through resolution - Ensuring post-incident reviews are completed - Identifying recurring issues and systemic weaknesses - Driving corrective actions and follow-through You are not expected to personally solve every technical problem. You are expected to make sure the right people are involved, the issue is progressing and someone remains accountable until it is resolved. Problem Management & Continuous Improvement An important part of this role is looking beyond individual tickets. You will identify trends, recurring incidents, operational weaknesses and process failures and work with AirGate leadership and technical teams to improve them. Examples may include: - Repeated monitoring alerts - Repeat customer incidents - Escalation failures - Incomplete documentation - Gaps in operational readiness - Inconsistent runbook execution - Manual processes that should be automated - Coverage gaps - Vendor issues - Poor handoffs between teams - Recurring infrastructure or service problems The goal is not simply to close tickets. The goal is to continuously improve the service. Operational Readiness You will help ensure that new customers, technologies and managed services are operationally ready before entering production support. You will work with delivery and technical teams to validate areas such as: - Monitoring - Alerting - Documentation - Runbooks - Support procedures - Escalation paths - Ownership - Backup and recovery procedures - Service dependencies - Vendor support requirements - After-hours procedures - Customer communication requirements You must be willing to challenge a transition when something is not ready to be supported properly. Monitoring, Automation & AI We are building a modern cloud operations environment, not a legacy ticket desk. The Frontier Command Center will increasingly use automation, observability, analytics and AI to improve how services are operated. You will help identify opportunities to: - Automate repetitive service-management processes - Improve monitoring and alert correlation - Reduce alert fatigue - Automate escalation - Improve incident classification and routing - Identify recurring problems using operational data - Use AI to support service-desk and operations teams - Improve knowledge retrieval and runbook execution - Create proactive rather than reactive service operations You do not need to be an AI engineer. You do need to be curious about how AI technology can make service operations materially better and identify opportunities to leverage it in a meaningful and impactful way and be comfortable using it to deliver outcomes Service Performance & Reporting You will help establish and maintain meaningful operational metrics, including areas such as: - SLA attainment - Response and resolution performance - Incident volume - Ticket aging - Escalation volume - Major incident performance - Recurring incidents - Customer-impacting trends - Alert volumes - Service availability - Operational backlog - Root-cause actions - Continuous-improvement initiatives We want reporting that helps us make decisions — not dashboards for the sake of dashboards. Vendor & Third-Party Coordination You will also help coordinate operational relationships with key vendors and service providers. This may include: - Microsoft - Telecommunications providers - Data-centre providers - Software vendors - Hardware vendors - Monitoring-platform providers - Other technology partners Vendor management will be shared across the organization, but you will ensure operational issues involving third parties are tracked and escalated appropriately. This role requires someone who can work across teams internally and externally without needing to personally control every team. Influence, follow-through and judgment matter. What We Are Looking For We are looking for someone with meaningful experience in IT service management, managed services, cloud operations, infrastructure operations or service-desk leadership. You may have held titles such as: - Managed Services Manager - Service Operations Manager - Service Delivery Manager - Service Desk Manager - IT Operations Manager - NOC Manager - Cloud Operations Manager - Technical Operations Manager - Incident Manager More important than the exact title is the experience you bring and your innovative thinking about how to make it better using new technologies like AI. Ideal Experience Strong candidates will have experience with several of the following: - Managed services environments - IT service management - Service desk operations - Incident management - Major incident management - Problem management - Escalation management - SLA management - Monitoring and alerting platforms - Cloud operations - Microsoft Azure - Microsoft 365 - Microsoft Security - Infrastructure and networking - ITIL practices - Service-management platforms - Operational reporting - Runbook and process development - Continuous improvement - Vendor coordination - Uses AI daily to successfully support their current workflows. Experience working within an MSP, cloud services provider or complex enterprise technology environment would be particularly valuable. Technical Understanding This is not a hands-on senior engineering position, but you must have enough technical understanding to operate effectively in a cloud and infrastructure environment. You should be comfortable discussing concepts such as: - Azure infrastructure - Networking - Identity - Security - Microsoft 365 - Monitoring - Backup and disaster recovery - Cloud services - Infrastructure incidents - Service dependencies You do not need to design the architecture yourself. You do need to understand enough to ask good questions, recognize risk, challenge assumptions and escalate effectively. What Success Looks Like Within this role, success means: - Service incidents have clear ownership. - Escalations happen when they should. - Overnight and after-hours issues do not disappear into a queue. - Teams understand operating procedures. - Recurring issues are identified and addressed. - Customer-impacting problems receive appropriate attention. - Monitoring becomes increasingly intelligent and actionable. - Runbooks are documented and followed. - Operational performance is visible. - Service transitions are better controlled. - Processes become more consistent. - Automation reduces unnecessary manual work. - Customers experience a responsive, accountable managed-services organization. Most importantly: Nothing important falls through the cracks. The Person We Think Will Thrive Here You will probably enjoy this role if you: - Naturally notice operational gaps - Like creating structure out of complexity - Follow things through - Are comfortable escalating when necessary - Stay calm during incidents - Communicate clearly - Hold people accountable respectfully - Care about customer outcomes - Think in systems and processes - Adept at using innovative technology like AI - Enjoy building rather than simply maintaining - Believe recurring problems should actually be fixed - Understand that strong operations require both discipline and good judgment You should also be comfortable working in a growing company where processes continue to evolve.
