Metric Insights is a profitable, self-sustaining startup in the Business Intelligence space. We are pioneering a new way for companies to gain insight into their data through a “single pane of glass” paradigm. To support our growing list of customers (across many verticals), our support engineering team is looking for help!

As a Support Engineer, you will be the superhero we need to solve challenging, highly technical problems that face our customers and front-line colleagues today. To solve these issues, you must have a knack for troubleshooting a variety of problems (application, OS, network, databases, security, etc.), methodically determine root cause, and find the best solutions or workarounds.

You will also be escalating issues and submitting enhancement requests on behalf of customers to our product team and developers, serving as the gateway between the customer-base and internal teams. This requires being able to see the forest through the trees. You must have a knack for relaying real-world expectations and problems to the development team and decipher and translate technical jargon back to business users. You are the point of interaction between customer and company, and the insight you glean from this relationship will be invaluable in ensuring customer and company success.
