About the Role

~1 min read

We are seeking a customer-focused Support Engineer who is excited about supporting AI/ML/ SaaS functionality and platforms and passionate about helping customers solve complex problems. In this high-visibility, customer-facing role, you will manage a ticket queue of cases with varying complexity specifically for Adaptive Planning’s Financial and Workforce Planning products.

You will drive incident resolution, root-cause analysis (RCA), and performance optimization across both Workday Adaptive Planning’s enterprise web applications and autonomous AI agent workflows. Partnering closely with product and support analyst teams, you will help customers find timely workarounds and solutions while managing critical escalations within strict SLAs.

A key part of this role will also involve hands-on technical debugging and AI evaluation. You will analyze system metrics, debug cloud-hosted ML service pipelines, inspect LLM orchestration layers, review conversation logs, and dig into system traces to spot failure modes—translating those insights into prompt, data, and workflow improvements.

Hybrid Work: Candidates will be expected to work from the office at least 50% of the time.

Hours: Typical shift will be from 8:00 AM - 5:00 PM IST

On-Call: Participation in an on-call rotation is required to provide after-hours support when needed.

Cloud & LLM Diagnostics: Inspect enterprise AI workflows hosted in public cloud environments (AWS, GCP), helping isolate breakdown points across model hosting services and API gateways.

Incident & Queue Management: Monitor and triage support queues, enforce SLAs, and process incoming tickets efficiently. Support high-severity incident responses and participate in weekend on-call rotations.

Customer Communication: Communicate clear technical updates, standard workarounds, and resolution steps to customer IT teams, working with senior support for high-stakes escalations.

Database & Code Diagnostics: Write standard SQL queries to validate backend data integrity, inspect REST/SOAP API payloads (JSON/XML), and execute existing Python or Bash scripts to run routine diagnostics.
