• Create and execute a data-driven customer recovery plan for every escalation and incident that is addressed.


• Utilize business and technical skills to manage customer escalations, coordinate meetings and deliverables, and analyze trends and patterns for reporting purposes.


• Use data, metrics, and feedback to inform operational and tactical decisions that improve incident and escalation management.


• Coordinate all necessary resources to fast-track and resolve new incidents and escalations from customers with a clear and detailed plan.

What are we looking for?

• A minimum of 5 years of experience in customer support, escalation, SRE, or incident management is required.


• Excellent contextual interpretation and writing skills, as well as the ability to effectively summarize and communicate to both technical and business audiences.


• Experience with a "Distributed big data Computing" environment, SQL-based databases, as well as data warehousing and ETL technologies such as Informatica, DataStage, Oracle, Teradata, SQL Server, and MySQL.


• Linux/Unix administration skills, networking, and Hands-on Cloud experience with AWS, Azure, or GCP are required.


• Experience working cross-functionally with support, engineering, product management, and directly with customers; ability to deeply understand product and customer personas.


• BS or Master's, or PhD in Computer Science or Computer Engineering, or related Engineering field.
