YOUR ROLE:

The Cloud Application Support Engineer will play a critical role in achieving our mission to turn our customers into fans As the first line of defense for new and existing customers to field product questions, incidents, and feature requests, your ability to understand customer problems and invoke a sense of assurance is critical to the core relationship we seek to achieve.

  • Tracking progress and updates throughout the support stages to ensure that tickets are followed through to completion, escalated appropriately, and the solution is documented.
  • Communicating a detailed understanding of the core problem to stakeholders.
  • Becoming a platform expert and evangelist — you will understand the core functionality of the platform and how customers desire to use it.

This is a full-time salaried position. The ideal candidate must be available during core support hours (8:30am to 5:00pm ET) Monday - Friday with the possibility of on-call rotation.

  • Collaborating with Solutions Architects, DevOps, Engineering, and Product Management to get an incident to resolution.
  • Owning feature requests or bug fixes based on direct customer feedback and interaction.
  • Contributing to and using knowledge base articles to help customers use self-service support mechanisms.

WHAT WE ARE EXPECTING FROM YOU (I.E., THE QUALIFICATIONS YOU MUST HAVE):

  • 2+ years directly supporting a distributed (installed in a customer's environment) application, ideally in a B2B software setting.
  • 1 year of experience working with AWS using CloudWatch, IAM, and CloudFormation in a multi-account environment.
  • 1 year of experience supporting an application using MySQL, including writing basic queries to gather data.
  • 1 year of experience working with JSON-based web APIs and related tools.
  • Experience working with AWS using EC2, RDS, and VPC including basic AWS networking familiarity.
  • Experience with other Cloud Providers, such as Azure, Google Cloud Platform, or Oracle Cloud.
  • Experience with the Linux command line using bash or similar environments.
  • Exposure to Python, Golang, or similar languages and basic familiarity with object-oriented programming concepts.
  • Exposure to Docker and Amazon ECS Fargate container technologies and related concepts.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills with a focus on being able to convey confidence and ease to customers.
  • Strong customer service skills.
  • BA/BS in Computer Science or relevant experience.

OUR WISH LIST (I.E., THE QUALIFICATIONS WE WOULD LIKE YOU TO HAVE):

  • Experience supporting an application as part of a strong partnership.
  • Experience across multiple cloud partitions like AWS GovCloud, C2S, and SC2S.
  • Experience with Amazon ECS Fargate.
  • Understanding of user identity and authentication protocols, specifically Active Directory and/or SAML/SSO.
  • Experience in a start-up environment.

WHAT WE WILL PROVIDE IN RETURN:

  • Kion is a remote-first company. We offer a 100% remote work schedule (US only) as well as an in-office or hybrid schedule if you are local to the DC-Maryland-Virginia area.
  • Excellent compensation and outstanding benefits, including top-of-the-line Blue Cross Blue Shield PPO healthcare coverage with ZERO deductibles. We pay 100% of the employee premium for medical, dental, and vision
  • 3% of direct compensation contribution to your 401(k) (no match required).
  • Unlimited PTO to allow staff to spend time with friends and family.
  • Regular virtual engagements to better connect with co-workers and talk about life outside of work.
  • A small-team collaborative environment that fosters communication and innovation.

At Kion, we are focused on making people's lives in the cloud easier through innovative products built by passionate employees. We are looking to add talented, motivated people to our team to help achieve this mission through the engineering, support, and delivery of our revolutionary Kion cloud enablement solution.
