Support Engineer

Accountabilities:

Technical Support and Queue Management:
Manage incoming support requests from direct customers and partner support teams, prioritizing tickets according to urgency, customer impact, contractual service-level agreements (SLAs), and account engagement levels.
Maintain clear ownership of every support request, ensuring each ticket has an assigned owner, defined next steps, and regular progress updates.
Monitor response and resolution times, customer satisfaction (CSAT), first-contact resolution rates, and recurring issue rates to maintain high support standards.
Take responsibility for issues requiring collaboration with other internal teams or external providers, ensuring effective follow-through until resolution.
Technical Troubleshooting and Resolution:
Investigate and resolve technical issues involving platform configurations, APIs, integrations, system logs, and data mappings.
Identify whether problems originate from customer configurations or underlying product defects, test proposed solutions, and confirm successful recovery.
Escalate complex technical issues to Engineering with clear documentation, diagnostic evidence, and actionable recommendations.
Support customers during implementation and onboarding activities by resolving tactical technical issues and allowing deployment teams to focus on broader project delivery.
Account and Partner Support:
Act as the primary technical support contact for assigned accounts, developing a strong understanding of their configurations, operational history, ongoing issues, and key stakeholders.
Identify potential account risks and improvement opportunities through support interactions and communicate relevant insights to account owners.
Provide Tier 2 and Tier 3 technical support to partner support teams, offering troubleshooting guidance and strengthening their technical capabilities.
Improve partner-facing troubleshooting documentation and ensure customer requests are routed through the appropriate partner channels while maintaining visibility over significant issues.
Compliance Operations:
Support operational compliance processes, including I-9 and E-Verify recovery, reverification, Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) and web services configuration, and USCIS notice remediation.
Translate approved compliance guidance into practical customer support procedures and escalate situations requiring additional compliance expertise.
Ensure compliance-related issues are handled appropriately and remain within established responsibilities and authorization levels.
AI, Automation, and Continuous Improvement:
Use AI-powered agents and automation tools to support ticket triage, technical investigations, reporting, and customer communications.
Review and validate AI-generated outputs, maintaining appropriate human oversight for consequential decisions and customer-impacting actions.
Monitor automation effectiveness and identify opportunities to improve efficiency without compromising accuracy or service quality.
Maintain and improve help center articles, training resources, Academy content, and internal troubleshooting runbooks.
Identify recurring support issues and turn them into improved documentation, automated workflows, or evidence-based product enhancement recommendations.
Requirements:
Entry-to-mid-level professional experience, with demonstrated achievements in technical support, help desk operations, customer operations, or a related field.
A proven ability to manage support requests from initial diagnosis through resolution, recovery, and prevention.
Strong organizational and prioritization skills, with the ability to manage multiple open tickets, competing deadlines, and changing priorities.
Demonstrated experience building or implementing practical AI-powered solutions, such as intelligent agents, automations, tools, or workflows that deliver measurable efficiency improvements.
Ability to explain how AI-based solutions were developed, tested, monitored, and improved, including how inaccurate outputs or technical issues were addressed.
Technical curiosity and familiarity with APIs, system logs, data mappings, spreadsheets, and SQL, or the demonstrated ability to learn these technologies quickly.
Strong troubleshooting, analytical, and problem-solving skills, with a genuine interest in identifying root causes rather than simply addressing symptoms.
Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to provide clear technical updates, document investigations, and establish realistic customer expectations.
A proactive, self-motivated approach, supported by examples of personal projects, entrepreneurial initiatives, GitHub contributions, or organizations and tools independently developed or managed.
Demonstrated leadership potential, including the ability to take ownership of projects, coordinate others, and deliver results without requiring constant direction.
Adaptability, openness to feedback, and a strong commitment to continuous learning and professional development.
Willingness to provide occasional after-hours support when escalations require attention, with flexibility and appropriate coordination.
Previous exposure to HR operations, staffing, high-volume recruitment, payroll, I-9, or E-Verify processes is an advantage.
Additional role expectations:
This is a technical support and operations position, not a sales, pre-sales, or account management role.
The position does not involve sales quotas, renewal management, upselling, or ownership of new customer implementations.
Candidates should be motivated by solving technical problems, improving AI-powered support capabilities, and developing toward more advanced technical responsibilities.
