  • Manage service tickets, documentation, and escalation processes.
  • Coordinate product repairs, replacements, and updates.
  • Participate in an on-call rotation to ensure 24/7 customer support coverage.
  • Occasionally travel (approx. 10–15%) for customer site visits or deployments.

 

What you’ll bring to the role.

  • Bachelor’s degree or equivalent technical qualification (Engineering, IT, or related field).
  • 3+ years’ experience in a technical support, systems engineering, or broadcast operations role.
  • Strong working knowledge of IP video and broadcast technologies, protocols and standards such as SMPTE 2110, NMOS, PTP, and SRT, etc.
  • Familiarity with containerized and virtualized environments (Docker, Kubernetes).
  • Competent in networking fundamentals (CCNA-level knowledge or equivalent).
  • Experience with IP switch fabrics and cloud platforms.
  • Proficient with Linux command-line tools and SSH-based troubleshooting.
