POSITION SUMMARY: The Application Support Analyst specializes in the Freshworks ITSM platform and plays a key role in maintaining, configuring, and optimizing our enterprise service management system.

The Application Support Analyst will collaborate closely with IT and business stakeholders to support service delivery, drive automation, and enhance user experience. This is a primarily remote position, but candidates must live within reasonable distance to the Dallas area.
