If you are looking to build your career with an exceptional team, deepen your technical expertise, and make a direct impact on both our customers and our product, you may have found it here at Brinqa!

WHAT YOU WILL DO

Own resolution of technical issues for a portfolio of enterprise customers, from first response through final resolution - with the timeliness, diligence, and follow-through that keeps customer trust high and commitments met.

Serve as the primary point of accountability for your accounts, communicating clearly and proactively with customers and internal stakeholders, especially on the toughest or most sensitive issues.

Investigate and resolve complex, ambiguous production issues independently, partnering with Engineering and other teams when an issue needs to go beyond your desk.

Take ownership of minor-to-moderate configuration changes within customer environments, using our internal knowledge base, tooling, and your own technical judgment to move quickly and confidently without waiting on escalation.

Write clear, professional incident summaries and root-cause explanations that customers and leadership can act on with confidence.

Act as an initiator and advocate for AI-assisted ways of working - proactively bring new tools and ideas to the team rather than waiting to be asked, and help others adopt what works.

Contribute to a culture of continuous improvement, sharing what you learn so knowledge doesn't stay siloed with one person.

Represent the voice of the customer internally, helping the business prioritize the issues that matter most to them.

WHAT YOU’LL NEED

At least 3+ years in a technical, customer-facing support or implementation role supporting enterprise B2B SaaS customers.

Strong problem-solving instincts and the ability to work through ambiguous, high-stakes issues independently and with sound judgment.

Excellent written and verbal communication - comfortable delivering both good news and hard news to enterprise customers with professionalism and clarity.

Experience with graph databases (e.g. Neo4j), NoSQL data stores, or distributed SQL systems (e.g. Yugabyte), and general comfort working within modern SaaS applications.

Working knowledge of Groovy or another object-oriented programming language, with the ability to read, navigate, and make minor-to-moderate code changes.

Experience partnering with Operations/infrastructure functions to resolve issues that go beyond the application layer.

Experience working with REST APIs and API-testing tools such as Postman

Experience reproducing reported issues, documenting clear reproduction steps, and partnering with Engineering through final resolution.

Experience testing and validating code changes, bug fixes, product features, and customer-specific configurations before deployment

A genuine interest in AI and automation as a way to work more efficiently, with a track record (or clear enthusiasm) for adopting or researching new tools into a team rather than waiting for them to be handed down.

A strong sense of ownership and reliability - customers and teammates know that if it's on your plate, it's being handled.

Comfortable operating in a fast-paced, high-accountability environment where customer trust and commitments matter.

BS in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Information Technology, or a related discipline is preferred

AND IDEALLY

Background in cybersecurity, GRC, or vulnerability management.

Experience mentoring or upskilling teammates on new tools or ways of working.

Prior experience in a hybrid support/technical-implementation capacity.

LOCATION & LEVEL

This role primarily supports customers in Central and Pacific US time zones.

  HERE’S A LITTLE MORE ABOUT US

Brinqa was founded in 2008 by cybersecurity and technology veterans that witnessed first-hand the significant amount of time and people it took a company to manage the various tools and resources to protect the business from the ever evolving and changing world of cybersecurity. 

Building a cybersecurity platform that connects all of the relevant IT, security, and business data resources to create a common data view with actionable insights would give companies a resource that would allow them to respond faster, smarter and more efficiently.  

In June 2021, with a solid and effective product benefiting and significantly impacting Fortune 50 companies, Brinqa received its first and only institutionalized funding with Insight Partners.  Investing $110M and a minority position in the business, Insight Partners provided Brinqa a way to provide their cybersecurity platform product to more enterprise companies by building their employee base with expertise in Sales, Marketing, Customer Success, Professional Services and People. 

It is an exciting time of growth and for individuals to make an immediate and lasting impact on the company and its market
