[Hiring] Application Support Analyst @Teamified

Role Description

Working on more than one project at a time, and often at varying phases of support. This means you prioritize support rather than the sequential arrival of cases. Understanding priorities, bug severity, and client sensitivity is essential.

The main function of the role is to support our client’s customers, investigating reported issues, providing training and implementing software corrections, and managing client requests. You will be required to:

• Evaluate support priority

• Communicate or work with the customer to identify the issue
• Provide documented UAT’s to the developers
• Identify suitable workarounds
• Follow up with resolved software through to implementation and training if required

You will work alongside the developers who write the solution with your goal of making it problem-free before being released to the clients.

You will need a solid understanding of the different client business types, the client's solution functionality, and awareness of the types of related applications available to clients. In addition to problems within the program, understanding the structure of the software will allow you to analyze it more thoroughly and make recommendations for changes. You will need to communicate clearly to the clients and programmers as well as non-technical staff about what is required.
