Application Support Engineer   $60,000 USD/year

Description

Educational support infrastructures are collapsing under growing complexity as demands from schools, students, and families escalate. Schools demand immediate, AI-powered responses spanning learning platforms, SIS architectures, hardware, and operational processes. Yet most institutions remain trapped in disjointed tools, manual handoffs, and fragile systems that buckle under production pressure.

We bridge this divide through a radically different approach: AI-enhanced "cyborg" agents positioned at the core of a dynamic educational environment. In this position, you will define how the system evolves. Each resolution refines future automation, each root cause investigation shapes process and governance, and each outlier you decode strengthens outcomes for thousands of learners and instructors.

This is tactical, production-grade troubleshooting within a service context. You will diagnose unclear, multi-party breakdowns across learning tools, SIS infrastructures, authentication layers, network systems, and operational chains; use AI to form hypotheses, validate theories, and expedite resolution; capture the human logic that educates both technology and colleagues; and surface trends that convert isolated fixes into scalable, organization-wide enhancements.

This is not queue management, checklist execution, or "forward and hold." If you excel when documentation is sparse, when issues cross engineering, operations, and pedagogy, and when you can shift from technical analysis to stakeholder communication without sacrificing precision, then this position will be a natural fit.

What you will be doing

  • AI-Enhanced Customer Resolution: Investigate escalated tickets routed by AI platforms, deploy human judgment where AI capabilities are insufficient, and subsequently refine the AI framework to eliminate those gaps

What you will NOT be doing

  • Spending two full months onboarding; you will be required to master multiple products within the first month (we recognize this is demanding)
  • Depending on your managers for assistance; if you lack proficiency in self-unblocking, this role will present significant challenges

Key responsibilities

  • Combine human technical expertise with AI tooling to provide outstanding customer support, concentrating on intricate challenges that AI cannot yet independently address

Candidate requirements

  • Must be located in North or South America
  • 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
