We are looking for a Senior Technical Support Engineer to lead investigations into complex, recurring, and high-impact issues on our identity governance and privileged access products, advise enterprise and key accounts, and mentor junior and mid-level engineers.
You will be assigned to the AMER, APAC, or EMEA shift, with weekend on-call once a month. Shift assignment may change based on business needs.
• Lead root cause analysis on complex, recurring, and high-impact issues, and recommend sustainable solutions
• Perform advanced troubleshooting and diagnostics across complex customer environments, drawing on strong knowledge of the technologies behind our products: Active Directory, Entra ID, LDAP, databases, networking, and cloud services, plus Linux and Docker where products run on them
• Identify performance bottlenecks and recommend optimizations
• Collaborate with Engineering, R&D, and DevOps to resolve defects and improve product reliability
• Serve as a trusted technical contact for complex, escalated, and enterprise customer issues
• Lead structured responses to critical incidents, minimizing customer impact and downtime, and contribute to post-incident reviews and preventive recommendations
• Communicate clearly and proactively with both technical and non-technical audiences, managing difficult situations with confidence and empathy
• Prepare complete, high-quality escalations to R&D, triaging issues by reading code, logs, and stack traces before engagement
• Collaborate with R&D throughout investigations, ensuring customer impact and findings are clearly documented
• Capture and share knowledge from R&D resolutions across the Support organization, and identify patterns that inform product or process improvements
• Act as an internal escalation point for challenging technical issues
• Lead through technical depth. Queue health, performance management, and team coaching stay with the Team Lead and Manager
• Contribute to knowledge-sharing initiatives across the team
• Identify gaps in technical knowledge, process, and documentation, and create or improve knowledge base articles, troubleshooting guides, and internal training material
• Develop and customize scripts to streamline repetitive diagnostic tasks, leveraging command-line tools, support labs, and AI-powered solutions
• Contribute to broader support process improvement initiatives
• 5+ years in technical support or a similar role supporting enterprise software
• Level 3 or above on our skills scale (can work independently on common tasks) across the core skills below
• Deep knowledge of two or more identity governance or privileged access products, with at least basic familiarity across the rest of the domain
• Intermediate knowledge of cybersecurity practices, standards, and technologies, such as NIST, CIS, or ISO 27001
• Strong understanding of system dependencies and architectural constraints in complex environments
• Able to read code, logs, and stack traces well enough to triage issues before escalating to R&D. Experience with C# and .NET is a plus
• Strong written communication: clear, structured English that a non-technical audience can follow, plus excellent verbal communication and the ability to explain complex technical issues to varied audiences
• Active Directory and Group Policy (Intermediate to Advanced): Able to discuss replication, trusts, Kerberos/NTLM, delegation, GPO processing and troubleshooting (gpresult, RSOP), and service accounts. Hands-on troubleshooting of AD issues, not just administration
• Entra ID (Intermediate): App registrations, hybrid sync (Entra Connect), and permissions/consent for Graph API
• Application support (Intermediate): Experience supporting multi-tier enterprise applications (app server, database, directory, network), diagnosing via logs and dependencies rather than reinstalling
• Encryption and certificates (Intermediate): PKI, TLS troubleshooting, cert chains, expiry/trust failures, and LDAPS
• MFA and network/protocol security (Intermediate): SAML, OAuth/OIDC, and ports/firewall/proxy issues
• Linux troubleshooting and configuration (Intermediate)
• Escalation and root cause analysis (Intermediate to Advanced): Reading logs and/or code
• Cybersecurity frameworks: NIST, CIS, ISO 27001 (see Qualifications)
• LDAP
• PowerShell scripting (writes scripts, not just runs them)

• MS SQL Server (queries, performance, permissions)
