Senior Technical Support Engineer, Trilogy (Remote) - $60,000/year USD

Trilogy


Date: 2 days ago
City: Pretoria, Gauteng
Contract type: Full time
Remote
In most companies, traditional customer support is often plagued by inefficiency and mediocrity. Support engineers frequently waste time on repetitive tasks or struggle with problems outside their narrow expertise. Data shows that over 60% of tickets get escalated because the first line of defense lacks the skills or knowledge to resolve them.

At Trilogy, we don't do traditional. Managing over 100 enterprise software products, we've redefined customer support with advanced AI. Most issues are handled by our AI-powered chatbot, leaving only the most complex challenges for our engineers. That means every ticket you touch is difficult, varied, and requires creative problem-solving.

In this role, there's no time for hand-holding or "learning the ropes" at a leisurely pace. If you need constant guidance, struggle to self-learn, or tend to ask obvious questions, you won't last two weeks. Success requires a proactive mindset, the ability to adapt quickly, and the drive to figure things out independently.

If you're ready to step up and tackle the toughest problems in customer support, this role will accelerate your growth like nothing else. You'll gain unparalleled technical expertise across a massive product portfolio while contributing directly to Trilogy's reputation for excellence. If you are up to the task of pushing your limits, we'd love to see you apply.

What You Will Be Doing

  • AI-Augmented Customer Resolutions: Analyze complex tickets escalated by AI systems, apply human expertise to areas where AI falls short, and then close the gap by improving the AI system

What You Won’t Be Doing

  • Taking two whole months to get up to speed; you will be expected to ramp up one several products within the first month (we are aware this is aggressive)
  • Relying on your managers for help; if you are not adept at unblocking yourself, you will likely struggle in this role

Senior Technical Support Engineer Key Responsibilities

  • Integrate technical human expertise and AI capabilities to deliver exceptional customer support, focusing on complex issues that AI cannot yet fully resolve

Basic Requirements

  • Currently based in North or South America
  • At least 4 total years of experience in a technical customer support or engineering role
  • Advanced generative AI proficiency (i.e., use of multiple AI tools, ability to automate workflows and custom GPTs); if you've only used LLMs for research, learning, brainstorming, or content generation, that will be deemed insufficient
