The Opportunity
We are seeking a System Engineer to join our team in Cairo. This role is critical in providing hands-on Contact center related tools and first level IT support to our local Contact Center agents, ensuring they have the tools and assistance needed to deliver exceptional customer experiences.

- Troubleshoot and resolve booking discrepancies, technical tool access issues, and escalate larger system problems as needed.
- Monitor core routing and contact center systems, proactively identifying and escalating major issues to relevant teams or vendors.
- Collaborate with internal partners and vendors to support system functionality and drive improvements.
- Manage operational questions and issues, including equipment break/fix, voice quality, and interaction flow routing.
- Contribute to maintaining and optimizing computer and contact center systems, ensuring maximum benefit for users.
- Act as a point of escalation for booking-related errors, consolidating and communicating issues to the appropriate departments.
- Respond to technical outages and act as an incident manager, coordinating with other departments to restore functionality.
- Participate in business specification, configuration, planning, testing, and validation of interaction flows.
- Occasionally perform maintenance tasks outside core hours to ensure business continuity.

- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with a logical and curious mindset.
- Experience with contact center/work optimization platforms (such as Avaya, Genesys, Verint, or similar) is a plus.

- Excellent customer service orientation and communication skills.
- Ability to work independently, demonstrate self-motivation, and collaborate effectively with others.
- Positive, open attitude with a desire to learn, grow, and take ownership in a dynamic environment.
