About the Role
We are looking for a highly skilled and customer-obsessed Remote Support Engineer to join our Indigo Hardware Support Team. This role combines deep technical troubleshooting with a proactive customer success mindset. You will be at the forefront of transforming break-fix support into proactive and data-driven resolution—delivering operational excellence and shaping the future of remote technical services.
As a trusted technical advisor, you will leverage AI, XR, remote diagnostics, and cross-team collaboration to ensure swift resolution and continuous improvement. You will play a vital role in engaging with customers remotely, driving insights from RCA (Root Cause Analysis), and reducing field dispatches.

- Deep Technical Analysis & RCA: Conduct detailed remote Root Cause Analysis to identify recurring patterns and drive continuous product and process improvement. Contribute RCA outcomes to the broader technical knowledge base.
- Customer Engagement & Success: Lead strategic engagements with customers remotely to understand pain points, align on resolution strategies, and define success metrics. Establish long-term trust and position yourself as a proactive partner, not just a troubleshooter.
- Cross-Functional Collaboration: Act as a bridge between customers, Field Engineers (FSE), delivery teams, and parts approval teams. Ensure diagnostic accuracy and quality handover for field visits.
- Remote Enablement & Shift Left Execution: Share learnings, participate in technical debriefs, and develop knowledge articles and training to enable remote resolution and self-service adoption by customers and peers.
- Escalation Management & Ownership: Take full ownership of complex support cases. Set priorities, manage escalations professionally, and ensure timely and effective case progression.
- After-Hours On-Call Support: Participate in monthly on-call rotation to support customers across global time zones (24x7 / 18x6 coverage), ensuring business continuity for critical operations.
Desired Skills & Experience
- Customer-Centric Attitude: Demonstrated commitment to delivering excellent service experiences and solving problems with empathy and urgency.
- Remote Support Agility: Proven ability to diagnose and resolve complex technical problems using remote tools and data insights, minimizing the need for dispatch.
- Communication & Documentation: Strong written and verbal communication skills. Ability to produce clear, concise technical documentation and guide customers effectively.
- Team Collaboration: Demonstrates “One Team – One Goal” mindset. Works well in a matrixed environment with cross-regional, cross-functional teams.
- Initiative & Innovation: Brings forward ideas to enhance remote resolution, improve efficiency, and influence product or process evolution. Actively contributes to strategic improvement projects.
