Technical Support Engineer   $60,000 USD/year

Description

Educational support organizations face mounting complexity as schools, students, and families demand faster, more intelligent responses across learning platforms, student information systems, devices, and operational workflows. Most teams remain constrained by disconnected tools, manual handoffs, and fragile processes that break down under real-world pressure.

We address this challenge through a distinct approach: AI-enhanced "cyborg" agents embedded within a dynamic educational environment. In this position, you will influence how the system evolves. Each resolution strengthens future automation, each root cause investigation shapes process and policy, and each complex scenario you solve drives better outcomes for thousands of students and educators.

This is direct, production-level problem solving within a service context. You will investigate unclear, multi-party failures spanning learning applications, SIS platforms, identity systems, networks, and operational workflows; use AI to form hypotheses, validate theories, and speed resolution; capture the human reasoning that trains both systems and teams; and proactively surface patterns that convert isolated fixes into lasting, organization-wide improvements.

This is not basic ticket management, script execution, or passive escalation. If you excel when documentation is sparse, when issues cross engineering, operations, and academic domains, and when you can shift from technical diagnosis to stakeholder communication without compromising precision, this role will suit you well.

What you will be doing

  • AI-Augmented Customer Resolutions: Examine complex tickets escalated by AI systems, contribute human judgment where AI is insufficient, and then enhance the AI system to close that gap

What you will NOT be doing

  • Spending two full months onboarding; you will be expected to ramp up on several products within the first month (we recognize this is demanding)
  • Depending on your managers for assistance; if you are not skilled at self-unblocking, you will likely find this role challenging

Key responsibilities

  • Combine technical human judgment and AI capabilities to provide outstanding customer support, concentrating on complex problems that AI cannot yet fully address

Candidate requirements

  • At least 3 total years of experience in a technical customer support role
  • Basic coding skills for the purpose of troubleshooting/bug fixes
  • Troubleshooting Skills: Explaining complex issues in simple terms, demonstrating strong problem understanding, recommending relevant troubleshooting strategies, proposing multiple solution paths, and showing attention to detail
  • Must be based in a North or South American time zone
