Requirements

Objective: The goal is to manage day-to-day application and technical support, reduce dependency on senior engineers, and stabilize operations for professional services and law firm environments.

  • Experience: candidates with 4+ years of hands-on technical support experience, strong customer interaction skills, and practical Windows troubleshooting capabilities.

Priority Profiles: Candidates with an MSP background, FileMaker exposure, AV configuration experience, and multi-client support experience will be prioritized.

  • Soft Skills: Personality fit is critical. Candidates must demonstrate independent problem-solving, remain calm under pressure, and possess a strong process and documentation mindset. Role Overview:

  • Location: Pittsburgh-based, with a hybrid presence required at client office.

  • Scope: The role combines technical support with operational ownership. While not a pure Business Analyst or Project Manager role, it requires a BA/Project Coordinator mindset. Core Expectations:

  • Primary Responsibility: Ticket resolution and application support.

  • Key Skills: Understanding of business workflows, ability to manage implementations, and an ownership mindset regarding operational coordination. Ideal Candidate Profile:

  • Experience: 4-5 years in application/technical support or implementation roles within client-facing environments.

  • Aptitude: Strong analytical thinking and experience handling end-to-end issue management.

  • Education/Sourcing: Priority will be given to Carnegie Mellon University alumni.

Product management education would help for a junior role. Ideally, some finance background and product management would be ideal so it's closer to the tax/legal domain.
