Job Posting Description

As a Technical Support agent, you will work as part of our Customer Support team to solve complex customer issues by combining technical troubleshooting with a strong understanding of customer context and impact. You'll build technical capability over time while developing the judgment needed to deliver high-quality, customer-focused support.

Work Location: Skytech, Hyderabad

Work Schedule:

This role supports internal customers, partners, and stakeholders who primarily operate during U.S. business hours.

• Ability to work a schedule aligned with U.S. business hours, generally 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM Eastern Time (ET), including participation in meetings, consultations, and other business-critical activities during that time.
• Limited holiday coverage may be required based on business needs.

What You'll Do

Case Ownership and Technical Troubleshooting

• Investigate and resolve complex customer issues, understanding both the customer experience and the underlying technical cause
• Troubleshoot using tools such as browser developer tools, API clients (e.g., Postman), and log analysis
• Apply knowledge of authentication concepts such as SSO and MFA during diagnosis
• Build working knowledge of product behavior, integrations, and common failure patterns
• Develop a strong foundation in troubleshooting across web applications and integrated systems over time
• Own cases end to end, ensuring clear, structured documentation of investigation steps, findings, and outcomes
• Escalate issues with concise, well-structured summaries that enable faster resolution by senior team members
• Identify recurring issues, trends, and patterns to improve support efficiency and product outcomes

Knowledge Application and Continuous Learning

• Create and maintain knowledgebase articles based on real customer issues and case patterns
• Apply Knowledge-Centered Service (KCS) practices as part of daily work
• Continuously build technical capability through hands-on troubleshooting and feedback
• Strengthen analytical thinking to connect issues across technical and functional areas as knowledge develops
• Stay current on product updates, new features, and evolving customer needs

Deliver Customer Support Across Channels

• Provide support across phone, chat, and ticketing channels, adapting your approach to each
• Guide customers through solutions clearly and confidently, including live troubleshooting scenarios
• Manage multiple chat conversations while maintaining accuracy, quality, and composure
• Provide timely, meaningful updates with a clear path to resolution for every case
• Prioritize work based on customer impact and urgency, balancing speed with quality of resolution

Work in a Global Support Model

• Align to US business hours to support North American customers
• Operate within a follow-the-sun model across North America, UK, India, and Australia
• Maintain reliability and consistency in coverage, including select holidays based on business needs
• Participate in after-hours support rotations as required by product, region, or team size

Use Tools, AI, and Resources Effectively

• Leverage internal tools, automation, and AI-enabled resources to improve efficiency and response times
• Apply sound judgment when using AI and tools to ensure accuracy, relevance, and a strong customer experience
• Use these tools to support problem-solving and learning, not replace critical thinking
• Manage workload effectively while maintaining quality, accountability, and responsiveness

What You'll Bring

Experience

• 2-3 years in B2B SaaS or enterprise technical support (not high-volume transactional or retail support)
• Proven experience troubleshooting complex issues beyond scripted resolutions, including root cause investigation
• Required experience supporting customers across phone, chat, and ticketing channels in a professional environment
• Experience working directly with customers to diagnose issues (not solely internal IT or infrastructure support)
• Experience using case management or CRM tools (e.g., Salesforce, Zendesk)
• Strong written and verbal communication skills
• Familiarity with KCS, or willingness to adopt it quickly
• Experience in high-volume, primarily transactional support environments alone will not be sufficient for success in this role

Technical and Analytical Capability

• Foundational understanding of troubleshooting across web applications, cloud platforms, or integrations
• Comfort using diagnostic tools to investigate issues, even when the path to resolution is not immediately clear
• Basic understanding of authentication concepts (SSO, MFA)
• Strong analytical thinking with the ability to connect technical and functional issues as knowledge is built
• Ability to learn new technologies quickly and apply them in a customer-facing context

Preferred Exposure
