About the CGI Application Support Engineer 2026 role
The CGI Application Support Engineer 2026 role is for someone who does not just monitor issues but drives them to resolution with speed and accuracy.

Key responsibilities
- Monitor applications and infrastructure using Dynatrace dashboards.
- Own the incident lifecycle via ServiceNow – logging, tracking and resolution.
- Perform incident triage, troubleshooting and root-cause analysis.
- Manage P1 / P2 incidents, including bridge-call coordination.
- Support post-deployment validation and application health checks.
