What is a Tier III Support?

Tier III Support refers to the highest level of technical support within an organization, typically staffed by experts or engineers with deep knowledge of the product or service. These professionals handle the most complex and advanced issues that cannot be resolved by Tier I (basic support) or Tier II (intermediate support) teams. Tier III Support is often responsible for troubleshooting critical problems, creating long-term solutions, and sometimes working directly with product development to address systemic issues. Their expertise is essential for maintaining system stability and customer satisfaction when facing advanced technical challenges.

How does a Tier III Support specialist typically collaborate with other technical teams to resolve complex issues?

Tier III Support specialists often work closely with engineering, development, and product teams when troubleshooting advanced technical problems. They serve as the final escalation point, analyzing issues that Tier I and II cannot resolve, and may participate in root cause analysis meetings or contribute insights for product improvements. Effective communication and documentation are key, as Tier III specialists frequently translate technical findings into actionable feedback for both internal teams and end-users. This collaborative environment promotes knowledge sharing and continuous learning, which can open up opportunities for advancement into specialized or leadership roles.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Tier III Support specialist?

To thrive as a Tier III Support specialist, you need deep technical expertise in system administration, advanced troubleshooting skills, and a strong understanding of networking and software architecture, usually backed by a relevant degree or equivalent experience. Familiarity with diagnostic tools, ticketing systems (like Jira or ServiceNow), and certifications such as CompTIA, Microsoft, or Cisco are highly valuable. Critical thinking, patience, and effective communication are vital soft skills to resolve complex issues and interact with both technical and non-technical stakeholders. These skills ensure the efficient resolution of escalated problems, minimize downtime, and maintain high customer satisfaction.

Job description

Description

Quantum Sky is searching for a Tier 3 Support Personnel for the EEOC OCIO Enterprise Helpdesk. This source-limited Key Personnel posting is based on the PWS Tier 3/escalated support requirements; the source package does not provide a separate Tier 3 priced labor category, annual hours, degree requirement, certification requirement, or years-of-experience threshold.ย 

Tier 3 Support Personnel will provide advanced analysis and resolution for incidents escalated beyond Tier 1 and Tier 2 support, working across supported applications, business processes, legacy systems, data flows, hardware, software, telecommunications issues, and EEOC OCIO management coordination.ย 

Responsibilities:

  • Provide advanced end-user and business-functional support for incidents that cannot be resolved through Tier 1 or Tier 2 desktop support.ย 
  • Review andย validateย that incidents require escalation beyond Tier 1 and Tier 2 support.ย 
  • Initiate advanced troubleshooting and root-cause analysis for complex issues requiring higher-level technical analysis and resolution.ย 
  • Determineย whether incidents are isolated events or indicators of broader system-wide issues.ย 
  • Classify incidents, document findings, and analyze incidents in relation to previously reported tickets, known issues, and historical trends.ย 
  • Apply advanced knowledge of supported applications, business processes, business rules, policies, legacy systems, and end-to-end data flows.ย 
  • Address hardware, software, and telecommunications problems requiring in-depth technical analysis, multi-team coordination, or EEOC OCIO management authorization/action.ย 
  • Ensure all incidents are thoroughly documented with clear descriptions, technical terminology, business impacts, and supporting information sufficient for analysts, technical staff, or business process owners to independently understand and investigate the issue.ย 
  • Maintain complete documentation, analysis, and supporting artifacts within the service ticketing system.ย 
  • Document resolutions, obtain required approvals from the Help Desk Manager or designated EEOC management, and close ticketsย in accordance withย established procedures.ย 
  • Provide advanced technical support for enterprise-supported applications and support the Government's evolving software environment without degradation of service or interruption to mission operations when changesย remainย within the PWS scope.
  • Support technical troubleshooting related to Microsoft Office 365, Windows 11 migration, USGCB compliance, application installation/de-installation, configuration settings, application integration, endpoint remediation, desktop virus scan support, data recovery, and backup activities as assigned.ย 
  • Support weekly and monthly Help Desk reporting by ensuring Tier 3 calls and contractor-assigned support calls are accurately documented and available for reporting.ย 
  • Support security incident response data collection and corrective action documentation when technical incidents or vulnerabilities require Tier 3ย assistance.ย 
Qualifications

Required:

  • Bachelor's degree in information technology, Computer Science, Information Systems, or a related field.ย 
  • Highly qualified and experienced personnel capable of performing advanced systems supportย in accordance withย the PWS.ย 
  • Broad knowledge and understanding of information systems and best practices in software development and maintenance.ย 
  • Demonstrated ability to perform advanced incident analysis, root-cause analysis, documentation, escalation coordination, ticketing, and cross-team troubleshooting.ย 
  • Ability to work with supported applications, business processes, policies, legacy systems, and end-to-end data flows.ย 
  • Ability to support hardware, software, telecommunications, Microsoft 365, Windows 11, USGCB, endpoint security, ticketing, and enterprise application issues within the scope of the PWS.ย 
  • Acceptable command of the English language and ability to pass COR resume review.ย 
  • No source-specific degree, certification, orย minimumย years-of-experience requirement is provided for Tier 3 Support Personnel in the source package.ย 

Clearance:ย 

  • Must currentlyย possessย or be able to favorably pass a full-field five-year employment background investigation prior to performing work under the contract.ย 
  • Must have at least a Background Investigation (BI). The PWS states the process normally requires a completed SF-85P, "Questionnaire for Public Trust Positions," and references OPM suitability standards.ย 

Location:

  • Primary on-site work location is EEOC Headquarters, 131 M Street NE, Washington, DC 20507. Each Work Order will specify the work location.ย 
  • On-site work isย generally performedย between 7:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m. Eastern Time, Monday through Friday, excluding legal holidays and Federal Government closures, unless otherwise requested by the COR.ย 
  • Limited travel may beย requiredย during the period of performance if approved by the COR. On-site and off-site support resources must beย locatedย within the United States.ย 
  • Ad hoc telework may beย permittedย as part of on-site services if approved by the COR; telework schedules require mutual agreement and formal incorporation under the contract or bilateral modification.ย
