That's why we need a dedicated and skilled Senior Technical Support Engineer team member to join our efforts in transforming education.
RequirementsWe're looking for a Senior Technical Support Engineer professional with 5+ years of experience maintaining and enhancing internal IT operations and assisted with internal technical product support. You are a natural "maintainer" with deep technical curiosity, finding satisfaction in ensuring our internal teams are fully supported. You will be the cornerstone of our support operations, owning our internal technology environment while also serving as the initial point of escalation for internal product issues.
You are a great fit if you demonstrate:
- End-to-End Problem Ownership: A history of owning and improving internal IT and support processes. You don't just follow a script; you look for ways to make investigations and resolutions more efficient.

- Act as the Key Triage Point for Product Issues: Serve as the bridge between our customer-facing teams and the engineering team. You will be responsible for the initial technical validation of all escalated bug reports.
- Investigate, Replicate, and Document Bugs: Your primary product support function will be to reproduce reported issues, gather detailed evidence (logs, console errors, screen recordings), and write clear, actionable bug tickets that allow developers to start work immediately.
- Collaborate with Engineering to Verify Fixes: Work closely with the development team to understand fixes and then perform the final validation to ensure the issue is resolved before notifying stakeholders.
- Drive Support Process Improvement: Proactively identify gaps in our issue escalation process, contribute to internal documentation, and help build a more efficient workflow for managing technical product issues.
- Uphold Our Compliance Standards: Meticulously log all IT and support activities, ensuring your work generates the clear evidence required to support our security and compliance programs (e.g., ISO
