As a Product Support Engineer (L1) in the Product Support & Customer Excellence team, you will act as the vital bridge between Core Engineering and Customer support team . You will dive deep into customer-reported issues, analyze application logs and backend data, and drive resolutions. Working closely with Core Engineering, you will write, validate, and execute ad-hoc scripts under approval to resolve data/system issues while monitoring real-time application alerts to ensure high availability and continuous operational stability.
