Working closely with support engineers and leadership, they identify where automation can reduce manual effort, improve response quality, and help achieve the organisation's target of deflecting more than 50% of incoming support requests through AI-powered self-service.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

• Own and continuously improve the AI agent platform, including configuration, fine-tuning, knowledge feeding, and performance monitoring of AI-assisted support tools.
• Design and implement support automation workflows that reduce manual effort, accelerate resolution, and improve the customer self-service experience.
• Manage and evolve the knowledge management platform, ensuring content is accurate, structured for AI consumption, and continuously updated.
• Build and maintain CRM and ITSM integrations, reporting dashboards, and operational tooling used by the global support team.
• Monitor platform health, alert on degradation, and proactively identify opportunities to improve system reliability and performance.
• Partner with support engineers to identify automation opportunities from recurring case patterns, translating operational pain points into engineering solutions.
• Track and report on AI deflection rates, knowledge base effectiveness, and platform adoption metrics, using data to drive continuous improvement.
• Evaluate and pilot new support technologies, AI platforms, and automation tools in alignment with the client's technology strategy.
• Ensure data governance, security, and compliance standards are maintained across all support platforms.

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS

• 3+ years of experience in platform engineering, DevOps, or a technical operations role within a software or SaaS environment.
• Practical experience with AI and ML technologies, including LLM-powered chatbots, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), or similar AI-assisted support systems.
• Strong proficiency in at least one programming language (Python strongly preferred) for automation and integration development.
• Experience building and maintaining API integrations across enterprise platforms.
• Familiarity with CRM or ITSM platforms (Salesforce, ServiceNow, Zendesk, Jira, or similar).
• Strong data and analytics skills, able to design dashboards and reports that surface meaningful operational insights.
• Excellent collaboration skills, comfortable translating support team requirements into technical solutions.
• AI maturity Level 3: expert-level practitioner with deep hands‑on experience building, deploying, and measuring AI systems in production; fluent in prompt engineering, RAG architecture design, LLM observability, and AI governance frameworks.
• Demonstrated ability to architect AI support workflows achieving measurable outcomes: AI deflection rates of 50% or above, draft acceptance rates of 65% or above, first-contact resolution improvement of 20% or above, and agent AI weekly active usage of 85% or above.

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

• Experience building knowledge management systems or AI knowledge pipelines for support or operations use cases.
• Familiarity with vector databases (Pinecone, Weaviate, pgvector), embedding models, and semantic search technologies.
• Experience with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure) and containerised environments (Docker, Kubernetes).
• Knowledge of ITSM process design and service management best practices.
• Experience in a global 24x7 support operations environment.
