• Direct advanced remote troubleshooting across hardware, software, firmware, CMS/content delivery, connectivity, media players, receivers, sensors, interactive devices, LED/display systems, and related peripherals.
• Ensure the team documents troubleshooting performed, findings, root cause, resolution, dependencies, next steps, and escalation requirements within Salesforce or the applicable client platform.
• Establish and maintain escalation pathways between Client Support (Level 1), Technical Solutions (Level 2), Advanced/Field Technical Support (Level 3), vendors, OEMs, and client technology teams.
• Review high-severity, recurring, and aged incidents; lead root-cause analysis and corrective-action planning to prevent repeat failures.
• Coordinate field dispatch, replacement hardware, vendor intervention, RMA activity, or on-site technical support when remote resolution is not possible.
• Partner with Installation Services to define technical handoff and commissioning requirements, validate support readiness, and capture accurate as-built, asset, configuration, and warranty information.
• Develop and maintain technical knowledge articles, troubleshooting guides, support playbooks, configuration standards, wiring diagrams, escalation matrices, and client-specific SOPs.
• Define and report service KPIs, trends, risks, monitoring results, recurring failures, and improvement opportunities to Run Services leadership and account stakeholders.
• Support technical scoping and operational reviews for new digital opportunities, including support assumptions, service levels, monitoring requirements, technical dependencies, and resource needs.
