Why This Job Is Exciting

In your first month, you’ll

• Learn the supported solution, customer context, and how our L1/L2/L3 support model works
• Shadow ticket handling, environment checks, and incident troubleshooting in real production setups
• Get onboarded into our tooling and documentation (Freshdesk, Jira, Confluence, monitoring/log platforms)

As you settle into the role, you’ll

• Own customer tickets end-to-end: triage, investigation, updates, and resolution within SLA
• Troubleshoot using logs, system behavior, and structured reproduction; escalate to L2/L3 when needed
• Coordinate with HQ and local stakeholders during incidents (Support team, System Engineers, Solution Managers, ...)

Within your first year, you’ll

• Resolve standard incidents independently and consistently according to the support process
• Contribute to knowledge base and ticket hygiene (clear steps, root cause notes, reproducible findings)
• Support stability: help minimize downtime through proactive checks, clean escalations, and follow-through

What You’ll Be Responsible For

• Ticket ownership: analyze incidents, request missing info, reproduce issues, propose resolution steps
• Customer communication: keep tickets up to date, communicate progress clearly via portal/email/calls

• Escalations & collaboration: involve System Engineers / Solution Managers / Engineering when needed, track progress
• On-call participation: willingness to join scheduled 24/7 on-call rotations (project-dependent)
