About the Role We are looking for a proactive and experienced Senior Cloud Support Engineer to join our dynamic team. In this role, senior technical voice for our most strategic customers. In this role, you will independently diagnose and resolve complex issues spanning private cloud, search infrastructure, APIs, and agentic systems often without needing engineering involvement to confirm root cause.   You will leverage your expertise in cloud technologies, distributed systems and AI-driven search platforms to ensure smooth deployment, troubleshooting, and optimization of customer solutions.  This role is ideal for someone who is energized by hard technical problems, builds trust with customers under pressure, and is actively reshaping their work with an AI-first lens.

Lead recurring customer-facing rituals (technical reports, live calls, technical reviews) for strategic accounts at consistent quality. Surface account-risk signals early and articulate the strategic importance of assigned accounts to drive better customer outcomes. Contribute to knowledge sharing: Create and update support documentation, KEDBs, FAQs, and tutorials to empower customers and internal teams. Identify and propose process improvements based on patterns in your work and team-level metrics; flag trends proactively to leadership. Be an advocate for customers: Represent the voice of the customer in internal discussions and initiatives to maximize the value of our platform and products.
