      Sustaining Engineer

      Triage escalations from Support and perform root cause analysis at an engineering level. This activity typically involves analyzing product logs and telemetry data via common linux tools and custom built tooling, as well as analyzing source code. It is also common for additional information to be requested via support, as needed. In addition, subject matter experts from product development may be engaged to help diagnose root cause. Throughout this process, updates are regularly shared through a case tracking system and sustaining is responsible for driving the case to resolution.On some occasions, a customer's system may be actively down, which requires a heightened response from the sustaining team. The activity to bring the system back up can take place during off hours via an on-call rotation, and may include troubleshooting efforts directly on the customer's system. A deep, code level, understanding of how the application functions is usually required to resolve this class of issue. Show less

      Senior Sustaining Engineer

      In addition to the responsibilities outlined in the Sustaining Engineer role, my focus is on the development of custom tooling, short term workarounds and long term product defect fixes targeting supportability. In this role, I routinely engage in Agile development practices, serving as both Scrum Master and Product Owner for the team. In addition to PI and sprint planning, a large degree of my time is spent doing code reviews and mentoring junior developers, as well as delivering software features. As a senior engineer, it is also common for me to be engaged in ongoing support escalations as a consultant. Show less
