Description
This team provides second/third level technical support within multiple disciplines: R/S, Security, Collaboration, Datacenter, Wireless, Service Provider (both hardware and software) to customers, partners, account teams, and other engineers via phone/email/ consultation to independently solve & debug product problems.
Job Description:
As part of the team, you will join a team of 30-Tier 2 and 3 Customer Support Engineers. These engineers specialize in one or more core technologies while understanding the foundations of network products, protocols, and effective methodologies. As a member of this team, you will be part of a collaborative team to provide support during critical network issues as well as leading a caseload of lower critical issues.
Top Skills:
1) Catalyst Center/DNAC
2) 3-5 years of experience troubleshooting in a network/ Data Center environment
Nice to Haves:
Broad exposure/understanding of network products and protocols
Cisco Network Certifications (i.e., CCNA, CCIE, CISSP, CCNP, CCDA, etc.)
Day-to-Day Responsibilities are broken into two parts:
1) 50% of their day (4 hrs) will be spent taking customer calls for support. This will be operational and reactive. As cases come in, this person will work them to resolution according to priority level.
2) 50% of their day (4 hrs) will be spent working backlogs (cases that have accumulated and need to be resolved).
The engineers day typically consists 2-3 new issues per day and 10-15 cases in their backlog. This person also needs the ability to assess the customer's situation, and help develop an action plan that will result in a resolution. This is not a design/architecture role. This is heavy interaction with their customers and troubleshooting the issues.
All of these will require some combination of the following: troubleshooting, scheduling meetings with vendors and/or customers, recreating the incident and working the case in a the lab, or working collaboratively with other engineers.
This role is not like a help desk. This person will be doing higher level troubleshooting that requires them to work with other technical SME's to provide resolution.
This position is 100% remote.
