Sr. Technical Support Engineer (Night Shift)

Overview

We deliver innovation and services that enable enterprises to operate sustainably, intelligently, and efficiently. Our platform, Aera Decision Cloud™, integrates with your existing systems to digitize, augment, and automate decisions in real time. Aera helps enterprises around the world transform decision making – delivering millions of recommendations that have resulted in significant revenue gains and cost savings for some of the world’s best-known brands.

As a Senior Technical Support Engineer, you are a technical leader with extensive knowledge. You use best practices and a deep understanding of business issues to improve our product and processes. You are tasked with solving the most complex problems—those where precedent may not even exist. You often lead small project teams, formally train junior staff, and work independently as a key technical authority for the organization. You are a key escalation point.

Responsibilities

• Novel Problem Resolution: Investigate and resolve novel, ambiguous, and system-wide issues that have no existing solution (e.g., multi-tenant platform bugs, obscure performance degradation, complex integration failures).
• Cross-Functional Leadership: Lead cross-functional “tiger teams” (involving Support, Engineering, PSE, SRE) to resolve critical, high-impact customer incidents.
• Formal Training: Design, document, and deliver formal technical training programs and certification materials for the entire global support team.
• Proactive Analysis: Proactively analyze product architecture and support data to identify and advocate for long-term solutions, preventing entire classes of problems.
• Liaison to Engineering: Represent the entire support organization in product roadmap, architectural review, acting as the “voice of the customer” and “voice of support.”
• Identify and submit 3 strategic product/platform improvements based on root cause analysis, with at least 1 being accepted onto the official product roadmap.
• Set the technical standard for the entire support organization - 90%+ of tickets (PBLOGs, CETRIs, PSEs) to be high quality - clear & complete details of analysis, troubleshooting, facts, steps taken so far.
• Ideate, develop, and roll out new diagnostic tools and troubleshooting guides.
• Act as the primary technical lead for 100% of P0 (highest-level) incidents, driving resolution and authoring the official RCA.
• Decrease the average resolution time for P0 incidents by 25%.
• Lead 100% of weekly/bi-weekly/monthly status calls with Customers.
  
  

• 5-7+ years of experience in technical support, DevOps, or software engineering.
• Expert-level knowledge of the product's architecture, database structure, and underlying technologies (e.g., cloud platforms, containerization).
• Experience with code-level debugging (e.g., reading stack traces, writing scripts to test or fix issues).
• Proven ability to lead complex, cross-functional projects from inception to completion.
• Exceptional communication and influence skills, with the ability to present technical concepts to senior leadership.
