• Diagnose customer issues and assist our customer support team as needed.
• Demonstrate perseverance while discovering a bug or issue’s root cause.
• Report and clearly document issues that you find in our bug tracking system.
• Collaborate with a nice, fun and motivated group of fellow engineers on a daily basis.
