Description/Comment:

To keep up with the high volume and fast-paced environment, the client rely on SupportCenter to provide incident ingest, Level 1 support, and incident management. The SupportCenter is a 24x7 operations center focused on monitoring and maintaining the availability of services supporting client Technology. When engaged, the SupportCenter is trained to restore regular operation quickly and minimize the adverse impact on business operations.
The Technical Support Analyst 1 Contractor (TA1C) is the first point of contact for handling incidents reported by Technology's internal stakeholders. With a technical background in streaming media, IT, software, media technology, or production support, their primary responsibility is to promptly gather and analyze all relevant incident information through interviews with the callers and stakeholders or by interpreting monitoring data.
Upon receiving an incident, the TA1C will need to determine the issue's scope and impact. When possible, they will provide Tier 1 troubleshooting support to end-users and resolve fundamental issues. In cases where the incident requires more specialized expertise than a TA1C can handle, they will escalate the issue to a Level 2 support team or other appropriate resource (such as the Incident Management team) to coordinate resolution.
The TA1C will actively participate in incident management scribing, ensuring that incidents are well-documented and tracked throughout their lifecycle. This aids the Incident Managers in maintaining a structured and efficient approach to resolving issues, minimizing potential disruptions, and ensuring high service availability.
