The posting

Overview

The Escalation Engineer is a senior Tier 3 engineering role within the Service Delivery organization, acting as the primary technical owner and escalation authority for a portfolio of high-visibility, high-touch clients. Beyond resolving complex incidents, the role is responsible for preventing them, driving stability, operational maturity, and long-term technical improvement

Operating at the intersection of infrastructure engineering, service operations, and client advisory, the Technical Account Manager delivers proactive technical leadership across client environments and the shared multi-tenant platform. Unlike traditional escalation support, this position functions as a trusted technical partner to both the client and internal teams. The Technical Account Manager maintains deep familiarity with assigned environments and provides white-glove service, ensuring consistent standards, effective troubleshooting, and durable resolutions.

Job Description

Duties and Responsibilities:

  • Act as the senior escalation point for Tier 1 and Tier 2 Service Desk administrators for assigned clients
  • Respond to calls/emails/messages from technical POC’s from assigned clients in a timely and efficient manner
  • Collaborate with SME engineering teams to uphold operational and architectural standards
  • Promote documentation, knowledge sharing, and service continuity
  • Take full ownership of complex or business-critical incidents through permanent resolution
  • Lead incident bridges and coordinate internal and external stakeholders during major outages for assigned clients
  • Liaise with assigned clients CXM on a regular basis to discuss ongoing issues, trends, and technical road map
  • Provide clear status communication and expectation management throughout incident lifecycles
  • Perform root cause analysis and implement preventative remediation
  • Maintain regular updates for active incidents and projects in ServiceNow
  • Identify systemic risks and drive proactive remediation across client environments
  • Translate business requirements into technical recommendations and improvement roadmaps
  • Build trusted relationships with client stakeholders and advocate for client outcomes
  • Participate in a rotating out-of-hours escalation schedule
  • Work shifts between 7:00am and 6:00pm, including coverage during team absences
  • Occasionally perform planned maintenance and project work during evenings and weekends

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
