  • Use approved AI tools, such as Microsoft Copilot, in daily triage to summarize ticket history, search knowledge, draft user-facing responses, and suggest probable causes.
  • Validate AI-generated output against system behavior and documented processes before acting on it or sending it to users, and escalate anything that cannot be verified.
  • Identify recurring ticket patterns across users, properties, modules, and time periods, and report them to Level 2 and application owners with supporting volume data and a proposed root cause.
  • Convert resolved issues into reusable knowledge articles, service catalog items, or self-service guidance.
  • Propose and help test low-complexity automations, such as assignment and routing rules, form validation, templated responses, Power Automate flows, and virtual agent topics.
  • Create and maintain user-facing how-to guides, FAQs, and step-by-step job aids.
  • Assist in delivering basic end-user training sessions and one-on-one coaching.
