Our Company

NymCard’s mission is to enable fintech and financial innovators to launch frictionless payment programmes with our modern infrastructure, at record speed. Our open API modern card issuing platform provides flexibility and control to issue cards, authorise transactions, and manage payment operations with just one integration and one partner.

We are a team of industry experts and technology innovators who take a dynamic approach to solving complex industry challenges. NymCard has an open and collaborative work environment and together we make up the NymCardian Nation. We power possibilities for our customers and each other by bringing the best talent together to do the best quality work we can.

The Role

We are hiring a Support Specialist (L1) to provide front-line application and production support for NymCard’s issuing platform. You will be the first responder for incidents and service requests across ticketing, alerts, and chat, triaging issues, reproducing problems, resolving standard cases via runbooks, and escalating to L2 or Engineering with clear steps, logs, and impact. The role operates in a 24/7 shift rotation and requires strong ownership of SLAs during your window.

You will monitor platform and integration health including ISO 8583 message flows, APIs, jobs, and queues, perform sanity checks after releases and cutovers, validate data with SQL, and review logs on Unix or Linux hosts. You will keep ticket hygiene high with accurate notes and timelines, maintain knowledge base articles and handover notes, and contribute to post-incident reviews so fixes and workarounds are captured and reused. Success in this role looks like fast and accurate first-time resolution, clean escalations that unblock L2 quickly, and stable operations throughout your shift.

2 to 4 years in L1 application or production support in payments or banking
Working experience with ISO 8583, and familiarity with card or transaction flows
Hands-on with Unix or Linux, comfortable with basic shell use and log review
Ability to write and run SQL queries, experience with Oracle, PostgreSQL, or MongoDB
