Serve as a subject matter expert, swiftly resolving high-priority incidents through timely communication, escalation, and resolution to minimize downtime and customer impact. Collaborate with internal teams and stakeholders to enhance critical escalation workflows and ensure efficient incident management.
  • Knowledge Base expertise: Develop technical articles, troubleshooting guides, and FAQs to facilitate efficient issue resolution and self-service support. Continuously update the knowledge base with new solutions and best practices to ensure accurate and up-to-date information for both internal teams and customers.
What You Bring
  • At least 5+ years of experience as a Technical Support Engineer (Tier-2/Tier-3) or in a similar role within a SaaS, public safety, or mission-critical environment, with a demonstrated ability to collaborate cross-functionally, troubleshoot complex technical issues, and take strong ownership of customer outcomes and operational responsibilities.
  • Networking: Strong foundational knowledge of networking concepts, including the OSI model, TCP/IP protocols, subnetting, and troubleshooting network issues using tools like Wireshark or similar packet capture utilities. Experience diagnosing latency, packet loss, and connectivity issues in a cloud-based SaaS environment.
  • VoIP & Unified Communications: In-depth understanding of VoIP technologies, including SIP, RTP, and WebRTC. Ability to analyze SIP signaling, interpret call flows, and troubleshoot common error codes (e.g., 408, 503, 487). Familiarity with PBX systems, SBCs, and cloud-based telephony solutions.
  • Monitoring & Observability: Hands-on experience with monitoring platforms such as Datadog, Grafana, or similar tools to track system performance, identify trends, and proactively detect issues before they impact customers.
