AV Service Ops Eng (CIS), AV Service Operations - Amazon

Description The AV Service Operations team, as part of the Infrastructure Operations organization, is responsible for the entire fleet of AV/VC devices across corporate spaces worldwide. Tier 2 Support Engineers will monitor service dashboards and respond to incoming alerts as needed, by either resolving issues remotely when possible or by dispatching on premise teams to investigate, troubleshoot and resolve. They will assist Tier 1 engineers with cases that require a deep technical understanding or elevated permissions in a consistently professional and customer-oriented manner. Their goal is to help find a solution and provide Tier 1 with the necessary documentation, training, and/or direct troubleshooting support when necessary. If Tier 1 is not present, Tier 2 AV Support Engineers have the skills to guide whoever is available -technical or nontechnical, internal or external- to a resolution, maintaining professionalism and courtesy throughout the process. They are equipped with a strong troubleshooting skillset and apply it successfully - not only to well-documented and familiar AV systems, but also to unfamiliar, new, or bespoke designs which may have incomplete or even missing documentation. The successful AV Support Engineer (Tier 2) possesses strong interpersonal and communication skills, allowing them to guide colleagues with or without technical skills through the troubleshooting process and to effectively collaborate with cross-function partner teams in the investigation of complex wide-scale AV/VC issues in order to identify root causes and resolutions. They are passionate about providing the best experience to their customers, excited by the opportunity to meaningfully impact the direction of the service they provide and motivated by their team's successes. They're innovative, adapting quickly to new processes and procedures, and can prioritize their work independently in the face of ambiguous or conflicting requirements. They are motivated and independent, maintaining high levels of productivity with minimal supervision, and demonstrating strong initiative and genuine curiosity.
