The role
You’ll take ownership of the most complex technical issues Fortune 500 customers raise and see each one through to resolution.
- Run complex investigations from first triage to root cause and fix, across the network, cloud, endpoint and application layers.
- Dig into real diagnostic data, including packet captures, HTTP traffic, debug bundles and logs from distributed systems, to find out what’s actually happening.
- Turn your findings into clear, evidence-backed reports with repro steps that engineering can act on straight away.
- Be the customer’s single point of contact and advocate, keeping senior stakeholders informed from escalation to resolution.
- Spot recurring issues, write runbooks and knowledge articles, and influence which fixes get prioritised.
- Get involved in major incidents and post-incident reviews.
What you’ll bring
- Around 5 years in Tier 3 support, escalations or a similar hands-on, customer-facing technical role.
- Strong networking knowledge, including DNS, TLS, proxies, VPNs and how traffic moves through an enterprise network.
- Confidence troubleshooting web applications with dev tools, HAR files and HTTP/S analysis.
- Experience querying logs and traces in an observability tool such as Datadog, Splunk or New Relic.
- Solid understanding of Windows and/or macOS in a managed enterprise environment.
- A working knowledge of security concepts such as zero trust, DLP, secure web gateways and EDR.
- Clear written communication and a calm approach when customers are under pressure.
Bonus points
- Experience with SASE, SSE, endpoint security or web security products.
- Experience with SSO and identity: SAML, OIDC, Entra ID or Okta.
- The ability to read code (JavaScript, C#, Go) or script in Python or PowerShell.
- An incident response background.
Why this one
You’ll get exposure to cutting-edge security engineering, mentoring from senior R&D engineers, and a team where escalation engineers regularly move into senior, engineering, product or leadership roles. You’ll also be part of a global team spanning the US and Israel.
