Product Support Engineer (LATAM)

Job Summary

The Support Engineer owns 2–3 named client accounts end-to-end, handling L1 and L2 complexity. This role works in partnership with AI (which handles initial triage and suggests resolutions) and with the L3 team (which takes over deep technical investigations). Support Engineers are the client relationship layer: they know their clients' configurations, attend their reviews, and author the knowledge base content that trains the AI. They participate in shift rotation for 24/7 coverage, with AI agents handling initial triage and low-complexity resolutions around the clock.

Duties & Responsibilities

Client Account Ownership

• Own all support tickets for designated clients from creation through resolution at L1–L2 complexity
• Develop deep expertise in each client's product configuration, integrations, payroll rules, and country-specific compliance

• Maintain client artifacts: wage type catalogs, data dictionaries, and configuration guides
• Engage BAU team members for country-specific payroll expertise while retaining full ticket ownership

Investigation & Resolution

• Identify tickets requiring L3 investigation and escalate with structured context (symptoms, initial analysis, client impact, reproduction steps)
• Respond within SLA timelines: L1 within 1 hour, L2 within 4 hours, L3 within 1 business day
• Proactively validate deployment changelogs and release notes for impact on assigned client configurations

Knowledge Building & AI Collaboration

• Author and maintain knowledge base articles for common issues and resolutions; every resolved ticket contributes to the KB and AI training data
• Review AI-suggested resolutions for assigned clients, validate or correct them, and provide structured feedback
• Tag 100% of resolved tickets with structured resolution data for AI learning

24/7 Coverage

• Participate in shift rotation for 24/7 coverage as scheduled
• Handle cross-client tickets during off-peak shifts when primary account owners are off-shift
• Follow structured shift handover protocols
