Job Description

Your Career

You will work firsthand with our valued customers to address their complex post-sales concerns where analysis of situations or data requires an in-depth evaluation of many factors. You’re a critical thinker in understanding the methods, techniques, and evaluation criteria for obtaining results. You’ll enjoy networking with key contacts outside your own area of expertise, with a strong capability of detailing difficult technical issues to both non-technical and technical professionals.

You will regularly participate in technical discussions with multi-functional teams, creating an environment of transparency that ultimately leads to better products, better working environments, and better cybersecurity. Your quick thinking and support to our clients provides the fast assistance they need to keep their environments secure – which means you’ll need to move quickly, thoughtfully, and provide technical assistance as needed (often, in high-pressure situations).

Your Impact

  • Manage support cases to ensure issues are recorded, tracked, resolved, and follow-ups are completed in a timely manner
  • Provide fault isolation and root cause analysis for technical issues
  • Publish Technical Support Bulletins and other technical documentation in the Knowledge Base
  • Review of technical documentation for training materials, technical marketing collateral, manuals, troubleshooting guides, etc.
  • Provide configurations, troubleshooting, and best practices to customers
  • Work with our Engineering team and influence the operability of the product
  • Able to effectively communicate to all levels and stakeholders – internally and externally on complex technical issues

Qualifications

Your Experience 

  • 4+ years in technical support roles, working directly with large global customers and partners in addition to internal teams (such as DevOps, Engineering, QA, Product managers), specifically with Cloud exposure and experience
  • A customer-centric mindset is a mandated attitude for this position as a technical support engineer
  • Existing knowledge of, and experience with public cloud platform (XaaS) features, capabilities, and best use scenarios
  • Existing knowledge of, and experience with application developments or operations under the container / serverless environment on public clouds
  • Ability to independently troubleshoot, reproduce issues and identify feasible workarounds in broad, complex, and unique environments with mixed applications and protocols required
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills
  • Experience supporting Firewall or Network and Security devices is a plus
  • Having rich knowledge in Network Security and Networking protocols is a plus

Additional Information

The Team

You’ll be involved in implementing new products, transitioning from old products to new, and will fix integrations and critical issues as they are raised – in fact, you’ll seek them out to ensure our clients are safely supported. We fix and identify technical problems, with a pointed focus of providing the best customer support in the industry.
