Who We Are

Acumera is now Scale Computing! Scale Computing is a global leader in edge computing, hyperconverged infrastructure, and managed networking solutions. We deliver innovative, secure, and scalable technology that powers critical operations worldwide.

We’re a growing company looking for motivated professionals to join our team!

The Tier 2 Technical Customer Support Engineer plays a critical role in supporting our post-sales Scale Computing customers, because our number one goal is to make our customers exceptionally happy when they seek our support. We believe in best-ever experiences from the inside out - so this means we’re looking for an approachable, friendly candidate who will love their co-workers as much as we love them.

A successful Tier 2 Support Engineer requires impeccable problem-solving, communication, and interpersonal skills, patience, a customer-friendly attitude, and the ability to work in a team environment. Our employees are intelligent, enthusiastic, entrepreneurial, and actively create the vision of Scale Computing.

Unlike Tier 1 Support Engineers, Tier 2 Support Engineers will be required to work directly with multiple Scale Computing teams for complex issues, including Product and Engineering, and will be responsible for resolving cases directly from customers and those escalated from the Tier support team. Every member of our Support team will strive to maintain an above-industry average Net Promoter Score (NPS) and meet/exceed Team and Individual goals and Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) as established by Support Management. Bonus points for those who are obsessed with high customer satisfaction.
