The role

A customer-facing technical support engineer at a software product company investigates web applications, REST APIs, integrations, authentication, and data issues, resolves escalated incidents, and builds Python automations and SQL-based diagnostics. This person leads customer-facing root-cause analyses, improves runbooks, and coordinates technical resolution across engineering and customer teams.

Full job description

Responsibilities:

Lead complex, ambiguous, enterprise, solution-led, and escalated customer issues from investigation through resolution and trust-restoring closure.

Design and execute investigations across web applications, APIs, integrations, authentication, data, logs, configurations, and system behavior, even when no playbook exists.

Resolve the majority of technical issues independently and engage engineering only with clear evidence, reproduction steps, impact, and a strong technical hypothesis.

Lead high-severity incident response and customer-facing RCAs, driving containment, stakeholder alignment, proactive communication, corrective action, and follow-through.

Manage multiple concurrent priorities while protecting the health of the shared queue, service levels, and communication quality across shifts and regions.

Use AI and coding tools to accelerate debugging, analyze patterns, build or maintain reliable agents and automations, and contribute lightweight code or tooling fixes.

Turn recurring issues into adopted runbooks, onboarding improvements, evaluation loops, automation, product feedback, or engineering action that reduces repeat work.

Mentor CXE 1 engineers through pairing, reviews, and case debriefs; raise the team's judgment without taking ownership away from them.

Partner confidently with Engineering, Product, Customer Success, and Account teams, making important calls and keeping accountability clear during pressure.

Participate in rotational shifts and on-call coverage, including occasional evenings or weekends, to support global customer needs.

Requirements:

3 to 7 years of experience in technical support, product support, solutions engineering, implementation, cloud support, software engineering, SDET, or a similar customer-facing technical role.

Strong debugging depth across web applications, REST APIs, distributed integrations, logs, configurations, and customer workflows.

Solid SQL skills and the ability to independently investigate data issues and validate platform behavior.

Working knowledge of SSO, SAML, OAuth, and common identity or integration failure modes.

Hands-on coding ability in Python or a similar language; comfortable reading production code and creating scripts, automations, or lightweight fixes.

Proven judgment in ambiguous or high-pressure situations, including prioritization, incident response, and deciding when and how to involve other teams.

Clear, precise, and empathetic communicator who can lead difficult calls, executive-visible updates, and multi-stakeholder customer moments.

Strong ownership: you drive outcomes without being chased and remain accountable even when work crosses team boundaries.

Open to rotational shifts and occasional on-call coverage across a global customer base.
