Virtasant is a leading cloud consulting services provider. We heavily focus on lift & shift, cloud-native development, cloud cost optimization, and migration services. As a consulting company, we often face the challenge of creating an engineering team in a matter of a week or two. To do that, we have created a secondary support business that runs a talent network and provides staffing services.
At this time, we are seeking an experienced Support Specialist to join our team. As a Support Specialist, you'll be a crucial component of our operations, ensuring that our customers receive the highest level of support. This role demands strong problem-solving skills, outstanding communication capabilities, and a deep knowledge of our products and services.

Documentation: Write, edit, and maintain articles for our internal and external knowledge bases. This ensures that both our team and our customers have access to accurate, up-to-date information.
Process Optimization: Regularly review and refine support processes, making recommendations for improvements that will enhance efficiency and the customer experience.
Level 2 (L2) Support: Handle more complex, escalated issues that Level 1 support cannot resolve. This may require deep-dives into issues, liaising with other teams, and ensuring that solutions are communicated effectively back to the customer.
Feedback Loop: Collaborate closely with product and engineering teams to relay customer feedback and insights that can help improve our products and services.
Continuous Learning: Stay up-to-date with product updates, new features, and industry best practices to provide the most accurate support to customers.
