• Use fault isolation and root cause analysis skills to diagnose and tackle complicated technical issues
• Identify product defects (code, environment) via lab replication using network simulation, lab automation, performance testing, and validation tools
• File bug reports with the engineering team and develop test plans and best practices with Quality Assurance teams to improve overall software quality per release cycle
• 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.
• Travel to customer sites in the event of a critical situation to expedite resolution as required
• Provide on-call support 24x7 on an as-needed basis

• Working knowledge of Security services (IDS/IPS, Firewalls, etc.)
• Experience working with Firewall Central Management Systems
• Experience working with Virtualization experience (AWS, Azure, VMWare, OpenStack)
• Experience with Windows and MAC OS is a plus (Debugging, Editing Registries, Plist, etc.)
• Experience in Zero Trust Network Access solutions is a plus - AnyConnect, FortiClient, Cloudflare Access, Citrix Gateway, Zscaler Private Access, Cato SASE Cloud, Appgate SDP, Palo Alto Prisma Access
