Role Overview:

The Global Support organization at TIBCO provides technical Product Support services to our customers. As a member of this world-wide team, you will help debug and solve problems that may arise during the implementation of complex solutions by external and internal customers using our products. You will be responsible for gathering information about the reported problem, researching for known problems and workarounds, establishing the configuration and steps to reproduce the problem, and recreating the problem in a lab environment. Once the problem is understood, you are also responsible to identify workarounds or to collaborate with engineering to get a fix or a patch to the client as needed to keep their systems operational.

This role requires a lot of focus on problem solving and innovative thinking. Identifying solutions by understanding the problem requires a great deal of technical expertise so you should have the appetite to hone your existing skills and learn new ones as you continue working on some of the most challenging customer problems.
