Senior Technical Support Engineer

Comtech Global, Inc, Phila, PA, United States


Department: Engineering / Product Support / reporting to David Jacobus, Engineering Manager

What This Role Is
This is a more technically hands‑on role that owns escalated issues beyond what frontline support can handle. The engineer works directly with end users, Customer Success, and engineering to diagnose and resolve application issues using logs, database queries, and system‑level tools. This is real diagnostic work — not scripted troubleshooting.

Who We're Looking For
Someone technically solid and methodical who is comfortable digging into a Windows‑based web application stack without being a software developer. They need strong instincts, a structured approach to investigation, and the ability to communicate findings clearly to both technical and non‑technical stakeholders. This person doesn't need to write code, but they do need to get their hands dirty with SQL, logs, and system tools.

Technical Baseline

2+ years in technical support, application analysis, or a similar hands‑on role

Working knowledge of Windows Server environments (IIS, Windows Event Viewer, file systems, services)

Ability to write basic SQL queries — filtering, joins, aggregations

Experience reading application and system logs to identify root causes

Nice to Haves

IIS log analysis and SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS)

Background in regulated environments — healthcare, government, or financial services

Monitoring tools: Dynatrace, Datadog, PagerDuty

Basic PowerShell for diagnostics

How to Sell It

This role has real technical depth — candidates who are bored by scripted support and want to do meaningful diagnostic work will find it engaging

Exposure to a complex enterprise web application

Part of a growing, maturing support function with room to make an impact

Candidates must be U.S. citizens or permanent residents with no prior denial of government security clearance.
