Technical Support Analyst 3

This delivery team is looking for a highly motivated Technical Support Analyst (TSA) who truly understands the meaning of world-class customer service and global technical support. As a TSA you will primarily be responsible for investigating issues escalated by Tier 1 support agents, and for resolving them or working with other team members to reach resolution, tracking progress of resolution for all open items, and keeping Tier 1 agents apprised of status and expected timing of resolution.



In this role, you will be expected to develop program knowledge about online subscriptions programs including benefit entitlements, online resources, and program and system dependencies. You will be the primary escalation point from Tier 1 Support, and you will be very involved in issue investigation and resolution, and working with team members to ensure timely responses are provided back to customers.



Specific responsibilities include but are not limited to:

• Gather service request metrics from downstream support tiers for incorporation into end to end support metrics.


• Create post-mortem and resolution documentation for issues, where appropriate.


• Manage system outage notifications – email communications and system alerts.


• Create and maintain process and internal knowledge base articles.


• Monitor system error logs to identify system health or integration problems.


• Monitor program forums/blogs to identify Subscription specific questions or issues, and coordinate responses from subject matter experts.


• Create and run basic SQL queries.


• Update support and customer resources where programmatic solutions are not in place.


• Participate in periodic conference calls w/ other support partners, program marketing and engineering partners worldwide.
