Maintain accurate ticket records, documenting investigation steps, resolutions, and relevant technical information. Create and improve technical notes, knowledge-base articles, and troubleshooting documentation to strengthen team knowledge and reduce recurring issues. Stay current with the platform, related technologies, support processes, and emerging tools through training and self-directed learning. Contribute to operational projects and additional initiatives that improve support effectiveness, customer satisfaction, and team efficiency. Explore and apply AI tools where they can improve productivity, automate repetitive work, accelerate troubleshooting, or enhance technical documentation.

Experience working in web hosting or similar infrastructure environments. Strong written and verbal English communication skills, with the ability to explain technical issues clearly to customers and collaborate effectively with distributed teams. Strong analytical, problem-solving, prioritization, and incident-management skills, with the ability to work independently in a remote environment. Experience with Java, Python, or C++ is a plus. Kubernetes experience is an additional advantage. A customer-focused mindset and willingness to continuously learn new technologies and improve established support practices.
