Software Support Specialist - Data & Insights Solutions Unblocking stuck clients. Solving weird and interesting technical problems with your teammates. Turning chaos into order. Composing elegantly written and helpful responses to client questions and skillfully documenting them for your colleagues so everyone can benefit for the next one. These are just a few of the things that make our Software Support Specialists truly remarkable. And we are looking for additional members of this diverse, high-performing team to work closely with clients using a cloud-based data-as-a-service platform, supporting data-sharing programs at every level of government. Are you nodding and thinking this is exactly what you want to be doing? If so, we should talk! Why this job is important Our Support Specialists are product experts and technical advisors to anyone who uses, manages, or supports Tyler data platforms, from members of the public to data workers and leaders at government agencies to internal partners and other Tyler divisions. On a given day, you might have a Slack exchange with a Client Success Manager asking you to keep an eye out for potential questions during an upcoming customer Datathon, followed by a real-time diagnostic Slack conversation with engineering to troubleshoot the root cause of a unique client issue. After expertly driving for the clarity you need, you synthesize the input into crisp guidance that you know will push this complex ticket forward toward an expedient resolution and a delighted client. Anticipating the fastest path to understanding, you choose to hop on the phone so you can field the client's follow-up questions in live time. You have another tricky ticket in mind that isn't quite ready to bring to engineering yet; first you plan to workshop some initial investigatory ideas for it with your trusted teammates at today's team standup. Then you have your daily ticket intake, a two-hour shift in which you screen and triage all incoming tickets, solving some inquiries quickly with a canned template while scoping others that might require escalation or a deeper dive. Later on, you'll be supporting a live course for a major city; you'll field questions so that the trainer can maintain their rhythm: together you ensure the city's data coordinators have the skills they need to launch their program successfully. In your work, you are consultative and strategic -- whether you're creating an "extract, transform, load" (ETL) solution to automate a client's data workflow or proactively addressing gaps in our documentation. You take a big-picture approach in seeking operational opportunities to help your team scale, while zooming back in to overcome technical blockers. You're a linchpin, bridging product gaps so our clients can focus on what matters most to them: running best-in-class data programs for government agencies. With your help, clients build their trust in our platform and derive value day-to-day.
